Easy to build and easy to upgrade
Nokia announced on the 19th that it will provide its in-building dedicated solution, the 'AirScale Indoor Radio (ASiR) system', to LG U+'s commercial network to improve the quality of its 5G indoor services and coverage.
The Nokia ASiR system supports a variety of 5G frequency bands and is easy and cost-effective to deploy in a variety of indoor spaces, including shopping malls and office buildings. Its compact size, lightweight design, and ease of installation allow for rapid deployment of additional capacity where needed, delivering the highest quality to both consumers and businesses.
ASiR supports simple upgrades to 5G NR with minimal on-site work. Furthermore, remote configuration is possible without a separate application via a web-based operator software tool. In particular, it is expected to replace the existing complex and expensive Distributed Antenna System (DAS) by providing enhanced operational convenience through cell combination and division.
“Having worked with LG Uplus on numerous projects over the years, we hope that the ASiR system will complement their existing solutions and help them build their 5G commercial network,” said Tommi Uitto, President and CEO of Nokia Mobile Networks.

SK Telecom First Applies AI-Based Network Operations at Gwanghwamun K-Pop Concert
SK Telecom announced that it applied an AI-based network operation system for the first time at a large-scale K-pop concert held in the Gwanghwamun area of Seoul on March 21st, managing communication quality throughout the event. Mobile data usage during the three hours before and after the concert reached 12.15TB, approximately doubling compared to the same time slot the previous weekend. SK Telecom monitored traffic using the AI system 'A-One' in five-minute and 50-meter units to respond to potential overload situations, while also operating temporary communication facilities and on-site personnel in parallel. This case is interpreted as confirmation of the practical applicability of AI-based autonomous network operation in an environment where demand from dense events and foreign users increases simultaneously.
