Built on Nokia\u2019s <strong>anyRAN<\/strong> software and <strong>NVIDIA Aerial<\/strong>, the platform is designed to help telecom operators maximize network capacity by making more efficient use of the spectrum they already own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At the core of the platform is the use of artificial intelligence to improve spectral efficiency without requiring a complete overhaul of existing network infrastructure. According to Nokia, early testing has already demonstrated spectral efficiency gains of more than <strong>20%<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The company aims to increase that figure to <strong>50% by 2027<\/strong> and exceed <strong>100% by 2028<\/strong>, a milestone that could effectively double the capacity of existing spectrum resources. However, these are long-term targets rather than confirmed results. Nokia plans to begin pilot deployments by the end of this year, with commercial availability expected in <strong>2027<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rather than relying on costly hardware upgrades, the AI-RAN platform will be offered through a software subscription model. Operators will be able to choose from three deployment options: a GPU-powered plug-in card for existing <strong>AirScale<\/strong> sites, a standalone AI-RAN node, or a cloud-based server deployment delivered through Nokia\u2019s technology partners.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Nokia has unveiled its AI-RAN platform, combining artificial intelligence with radio access networks to improve spectral efficiency and expand network capacity.
