One such AI application, developed by MITRE manages wireless spectrum allocation within a cell site in real time so users can experience seamless connectivity and operators can see improvements in spectral efficiency, Nvidia stated. Unlike traditional approaches that shut down entire network bands when interfering systems are detected; this application uses AI to target and block only the affected frequencies without interrupting services.
Nvidia also introduced its Aerial RAN Computer (ARC) Pro. The ARC Pro will run 5G, 6G and AI together at existing cell sites, with the goal of enabling operators to move from 5G to 6G via software upgrades alone. Nvidia promised it will deliver both 6G connectivity and AI processing at the same time.
Speaking at Nvidia’s GTC developer’s conclave in Washington, D.C. this week, Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang said that for too long, the U.S. has depended on foreign communications technology. “Our fundamental communication fabric is built on foreign technologies. That must stop, and we have an opportunity to do that, especially during this fundamental platform shift,” he said as part of his keynote speech.
