Vendors Seek Operator Input on RAN Automation
Vendors believe operators are crucial in the RAN automation process, as the data they hold is vital for developing systems that can handle real-world situations.
According to Sameh Yamany, CTO at Viavi Solutions, data synthesized for testing purposes often fails in the field, making collaborations between operators and vendors important.
The better the quality of the information fed into automation systems, the better the output.
- Vendors require quality inputs in terms of data to train systems.
- Operators are key to providing this data.
- Commercial-grade testing environments are necessary to trial more data in real-world scenarios.
