A Breakthrough in Interactive Calling Technology
China Mobile Henan, in collaboration with Huawei and key industry partners, has officially begun recruiting internal users for its Data Channel (DC)-based New Calling services. This initiative follows extensive province-wide network upgrades, marking a significant advancement in interactive communication technology. By pioneering real-time engagement features, this rollout sets a new benchmark for the global New Calling industry and highlights the rapid evolution of next-generation mobile networks.
Expanding Beyond Traditional Calling with DC Technology
Data Channel (DC) technology is redefining the calling experience by introducing enhanced real-time data transmission within IMS. Unlike conventional voice and video calls, DC-powered New Calling enables dynamic interaction between users and the cloud, facilitating screen sharing, real-time translations, digital avatars, and AI-enhanced services.
By integrating advanced terminal baseband chips and native SDKs, DC technology expands communication possibilities beyond simple conversations. Users can now engage in richer, more immersive experiences, ensuring that communication is not just seamless but also interactive and engaging.
One of the key advantages of this cutting-edge technology is its flexibility across different industries and user needs. Whether for business meetings, customer service interactions, or personal conversations, DC-based calling is expected to revolutionise the way people communicate.
Industry-Wide Collaboration for Enhanced Adoption
China Mobile Henan has joined forces with Huawei, China Mobile Internet Company, China Mobile Terminal Company, vivo, OPPO, and Huawei Terminal to ensure a smooth transition into this next-gen calling ecosystem. With over 20 terminal models already supporting five key DC-based New Calling services, users will experience a new level of communication that prioritises both efficiency and engagement.
Introducing Five Game-Changing Features
- Screen Sharing – Call participants can instantly share their screens, use coloured annotations, and highlight important details in real time. This feature is especially beneficial for remote collaboration, troubleshooting, and business discussions.
- Enhanced Real-Time Translation – Powered by DC’s advanced processing, this service provides smoother, more accurate translations with customisable language settings, helping break down language barriers in global communication.
- Enhanced Fun Calling – Users can personalise calls with AR special effects, virtual backgrounds, and interactive stickers, making conversations more expressive and entertaining—a feature that appeals particularly to younger demographics and social media enthusiasts.
- Digital Human Avatars – A groundbreaking feature that allows users to replace their appearance with animated avatars, mimicking real-time facial expressions and movements. This adds an extra layer of privacy and fun to digital interactions.
- Intelligent Customer Service – Customers can now interact with AI-powered customer support, claim rewards during calls, and access GoTone privileges seamlessly. This brings a new level of efficiency to customer service interactions, reducing wait times and enhancing user satisfaction.
Shaping the Future of Intelligent Communication
The recruitment drive is a critical step toward the widespread adoption of DC-based calling. By allowing early users to experience and refine the technology, China Mobile Henan and Huawei are positioning New Calling as the future of mobile communication.
This initiative not only enhances user engagement but also introduces a new level of personalisation and efficiency in voice and video communication. With the increasing demand for interactive digital experiences, DC-based New Calling is expected to transform the way people connect globally.
Looking forward, China Mobile Henan, Huawei, and their partners aim to broaden the scope of DC services, develop more advanced features, and ensure that next-generation calling experiences are accessible to a wider audience. As this technology continues to evolve, it promises to set a new global standard for intelligent, interactive communication.
Additionally, as 5G networks continue to expand, the integration of DC-based calling with ultra-fast internet speeds will further enhance communication experiences, making real-time interactions smoother and more immersive. The evolution of AI-driven customer support and digital avatars is expected to create new business opportunities, encouraging companies and service providers to adopt this state-of-the-art communication solution.
As more users participate in the initial testing phase, China Mobile Henan and Huawei will gather valuable feedback to refine features, ensuring that the service meets the needs of modern consumers and businesses. This marks an exciting new chapter in the future of digital communication, bringing AI-enhanced, interactive calling closer to mainstream adoption.
