Huawei says it has deployed India's first artificial intelligence (AI) based pre-5G techlogy on Vodafone Idea network. Huawei claims deployment of AI-based massive MIMO (multiple-input and multiple-output) network will enhance user experience by three-fold within same set of spectrum.

"We are consistently deploying futuristic, next generation techlogies to enhance capacity and efficiency of our network. ding AI capabilities to India's largest deployment of massive MIMO for enhancing user experience is a furr testament of our commitment to create a future-proof network for digital era," Vodafone Idea Ltd Chief Techlogy Officer Vishant Vora said in a statement.

Meanwhile, Airtel has also been working with Huawei to deploy its 5G techlogy transmission equipment. In last six months, Airtel has deployed a hundred hops of 5G techlogy transmission equipment of Huawei. Huawei claims its transmission equipment could transmit data on up to 1 gigabit per second (Gbps) speed with 28 megahertz of rio waves to connect one mobile tower with ar.

Standards for multiple input multiple output, MIMO plays a very important role in 5G. MIMO considered a key enabler and a foundational component of 5G. A MIMO network can increase capacity of a wireless connection without requiring more spectrum.

Huawei h said earlier that by ding carrier aggregation techlogy in hops, which is pair of microwave antenna installed on different towers, can upgre data transmission speed to up to 2 Gbps and save power consumption by 20 per cent, reduce tower rental fee by 50 per cent while achieving transmission distance of up to 13 kilometres.

In related news, Vodafone Idea is also working with Ericsson to deploy Cloud Packet Core to boost its network performance, helping itself improve its existing wireless broband services.
