Operators face significant challenges with traditional RAN performance, including limited throughput, high latency, and inefficient resource utilization. In commercial 5G deployments, uplink performance is often a concern, especially at the cell edge where limited user equipment (UE) transmission power affects the base station’s received signal-to-noise ratio (SNR). Conventional channel estimation algorithms struggle in low SNR regions due to excessive noise. AI modeling offers a new approach by enabling precise channel estimation, optimizing resource allocation, and reducing power consumption. This enhances system capacity, improves network efficiency, and delivers superior user experiences.
Keysight’s Channel Emulation Solutions provide channel generation capabilities for a wide variety of channel conditions, along with real-time signal processing and radio frequency (RF) capabilities. Samsung successfully generated advanced AI models for channel estimation in the uplink receiver, resulting in significant gains observed in the lab environment. For example, simulated experiments showed a
