Release 18, Major Vendors are taking AI/ML to the next level for RAN enhancements!

:robot: In Release 18, Major Vendors are taking :brain: AI/ML to the next level for RAN enhancements! :star2: AI-driven network energy savings, load balancing, and mobility optimization are now a reality!

:satellite: These advancements are backed by signaling enhancements in current NR interfaces, like the UE to gNB radio interface and the inter-gNB Xn interface. This will deliver outstanding performance through AI/ML functionality in the RAN. :chart_with_upwards_trend::robot: By tailoring the AI model to vendor-specific needs, we’re promoting innovation and competitiveness.

Release 19 is in the works! OEMs are adding more use cases and fixing loose ends from Release 18.

One exciting potential addition: AI-assisted dynamic cell shaping demonstrated by Ericsson.5GS is entirely on board, supporting AI/ML-powered functionality with an intent-based management approach. The RAN listens to intent signals from OAM and takes action to fulfill the configured intent.
