AI/ML in 5G RAN Networks

Hello Tech-tribe.

Thrilled to share my new in-depth article on the role of AI/ML in 5G RAN!

In this piece, I explore how machine learning is moving from theory to reality across the entire 5G protocol stack - from PHY layer beam management and CSI estimation to intelligent resource control in the MAC, RLC, and SDAP layers.

Key takeaways include:
:small_blue_diamond: How predictive ML models are solving the channel aging problem in high-mobility scenarios.
:small_blue_diamond: A look at specific algorithms (like LSTMs and Reinforcement Learning) and their practical use cases.
:small_blue_diamond: An analysis of the technical challenges and the impact of 3GPP Release 18 on future deployments.

This is a must-read for anyone involved in wireless engineering, network architecture, and the evolution toward 6G.
