Recently, the special competition of the 18th "Challenge Cup" National College Students' Extracurricular Academic Science and Technology Works Competition came to a close at Guizhou University. Our college's entry, "5G Agricultural Intelligence Detection Platform with Edge-Cloud Collaboration" (Advisors: Chen Yuanping, Chu Shibing, Xu Jing), won the national third prize in the final competition. This is the first time that the School of Physics and Electronics has won an award in this special competition, achieving a breakthrough for our college in this event.

The team behind the "5G Agricultural Intelligence Detection Platform with Edge-Cloud Collaboration" unveiled the list at China Mobile Communications Technology Co., Ltd., focusing on the application value of 5G technology, the empowerment of vertical industry applications with 5G technology, and the realization of the interconnection of 5G technology virtual simulation software platforms and terminals. The entry closely revolves around the three core technologies of 5G networks: high reliability, low latency, massive connectivity, and large bandwidth. It uses virtual simulation to develop key 5G technologies and successfully designs an edge-cloud collaborative agricultural detection system based on 5G communication and machine learning. This includes agricultural information collection terminals, vehicle-mounted control and communication terminals, cloud servers that receive and process information from the vehicle-mounted control and communication terminals in real time, and user terminals. It utilizes 5G technology to achieve interactive control, automatic patrol, real-time collection of agricultural and pest information, and processing and visual display in the cloud server.

The "Challenge Cup" special competition, themed "You challenge, I fight," advocates "heroes regardless of origin, whoever has the ability will unveil the list." It adheres to the idea of "being guided by major national needs, using competitive coordination mechanisms as a means, and aiming to solve practical problems," focusing on "bottleneck" technologies, major social issues, and real-world problems. Through the process of "soliciting, releasing, competing, evaluating, and winning the list," the competition is organized by the government, enterprises, and other units to propose questions, and the organizing committee issues a "call to heroes" to universities. Student teams then compete to unveil the list.

The participating team from the School of Physics and Electronics closely aligns with the national strategic development layout, focusing on project design in 5G communication, agricultural big data, and intelligent detection. The implementation of the project can provide assistance in addressing pain points in agricultural development, fully demonstrating the advantages of the college's applied talent cultivation and its commitment to serving the socio-economic and cultural development.
