Ericsson on June 15 unveiled its AI in RAN software, applying carrier-grade AI models to baseband and radio equipment to lift 5G network performance and operating efficiency. The company said the software can improve performance, capacity and energy efficiency without adding hardware, and supports microsecond-level low-latency inference. Ericsson said tests on more than 15 commercial networks showed gains in throughput, spectrum efficiency, coverage prediction and positioning accuracy. In South Korea, SK Telecom is working with Ericsson on AI-RAN development.
