HCL Technologies Limited announced an expanded partnership with Nokia to accelerate the adoption of autonomous networks through AI-driven network automation and co-innovation of network automation RAN applications.
HCLTech has listed four new rApps on Nokia's Service Management and Orchestration (SMO) Marketplace. These include Anomaly Detector, Energy Optimizer, mMIMO Interference Mitigation, and Traffic Balancer.
Anomaly Detector monitors KPIs and network signals to detect and correlate anomalies across cells and users for faster, data-driven optimization and more stable network performance. Energy Optimizer scales base station resources during low-traffic periods to improve energy efficiency without compromising service quality.
mMIMO Interference Mitigation relieves inter-cell interference that reduces signal quality, improving cell-edge performance and increasing network efficiency. Traffic Balancer analyzes network conditions and redistributes traffic across available paths to minimize congestion and reduce latency.
HCLTech will augment Nokia's autonomous networks portfolio with its advanced suite of rApps designed to enable communication service providers to transition toward AI-native, self-optimizing network operations. The exclusive placement on Nokia's SMO Marketplace makes the rApps accessible and deployable for global operators.
The partnership establishes a long-term co-innovation roadmap to jointly develop next generation rApps that address evolving network demands across 5G and future network architectures. Hari Sadarahalli, Corporate Vice President and Global Head of Engineering and R&D Services at HCLTech, said the collaboration brings scalable, AI-driven rApps to help operators accelerate network automation and advance toward self-driving networks.
