AT&T said it is looking to transition from a closed, proprietary network architecture to a fully open and programmable network with Open RAN.

The research demonstrated O-RAN-based capabilities that could pay big benefits, especially for people who live in rural areas.

Turning networks into adaptive, self-managing systems is the true path from automation to autonomy in telecom.

The networking report was sponsored by Aprecomm, Calix, Friendly Technologies, Incognition, Motive, and Nokia.

Samsung, via the AI-RAN Alliance, defines AI-for-RAN as the use of AI in the RAN to improve performance, capacity, and energy efficiency.

The investment will enable Segra to deliver consistent, high-performance service across its network while improving its operational resilience.
