Ericsson unveils AI in RAN to boost 5G performance, energy efficiency

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.

EU to allocate two-thirds of key satellite spectrum to European firms

The European Union is nearing a plan to give European companies priority access to two-thirds of key spectrum used for mobile satellite communications. If implemented, SpaceX\'s Starlink and Amazon\'s Kuiper would likely compete only for the remaining third. The move centres on the 2 GHz band used to connect phones and vehicles directly in areas beyond terrestrial networks. Current licences held by Viasat and EchoStar expire in May 2027.
