Imagine your mobile network like a huge city of traffic lights. Today, most lights stay on even when no cars are passing. AI for greener 5G makes the ‘traffic lights’ of the network smart: they dim, sleep, or reroute traffic automatically so energy isn’t wasted when there’s little or no data traffic, while still keeping the roads (connections) flowing smoothly.
Think of the mobile network as a huge city full of roads (radio links) and traffic (data). AI in 5G/6G is like a smart traffic control system that constantly watches congestion, predicts where it will build up, and automatically opens new lanes, changes traffic lights, and reroutes cars so everything flows faster and more reliably without humans having to tweak every detail.
This is like a smart thermostat for a mobile network: when there’s no one in a room, it turns the lights and heating off automatically. Here, AI detects when parts of the cellular network aren’t carrying traffic and safely powers them down, then wakes them up when needed.
