NVIDIA and SoftBank have developed AI-RAN (AI Radio Access Network) technology, which integrates AI workloads with wireless network operations to create multi-purpose infrastructure. Unlike traditional RAN systems, AI-RAN uses GPU-based infrastructure to handle AI and wireless tasks simultaneously.
This technology was tested in a field trial in Japan, demonstrating its feasibility and potential to revolutionize telecom networks. AI-RAN offers economic and environmental benefits, such as high energy efficiency and profitability for telcos. The collaboration between NVIDIA and SoftBank aims to expand AI-RAN’s applications and transform 5G and 6G networks globally.
