The mobile communications industry has been provided with new guidance on the building blocks needed for autonomous networks that encompass Artificial Intelligence (AI) thanks to the publication of NGMN’s ‘Automation and Autonomous system Architecture Framework – Phase 2’, released today. 

The latest updates provide guidance and direction on the use cases, requirements, and architectural principles to embrace interoperable, multi-vendor and standards-based autonomous networks that will help to manage the increasing complexity of the evolving 5G Advanced ecosystem.
