Reimagining Telecom: GenAI’s Role in Elevating Customer Experiences

New Post has been published on https://thedigitalinsider.com/reimagining-telecom-genais-role-in-elevating-customer-experiences/

Reimagining Telecom: GenAI’s Role in Elevating Customer Experiences

As GenAI continues to transform the business landscape, we’re experiencing firsthand the emergence of technological advancements that are more rapid, more innovative, and more profound than anything else we’ve ever witnessed as a society.

The impacts of GenAI are so pervasive that it’s not just spurring a technical revolution, it’s ushering in a new age where arguably every domain – from how we work to how we live our everyday lives –will transform to some degree. While many industries have been working to reap GenAI’s benefits as quickly as possible, one industry has taken a slower approach to adoption: telecommunications. In fact, data shows only 22% of communication service providers (CSPs) have implemented GenAI solutions.

Despite telcos seemingly taking their GenAI journey at a slower pace compared to other companies in other industries who have accelerated their journeys, telecom’s steady approach isn’t the reflection of an industry that’s unable to see the technology’s benefits. Instead, it’s the result of an industry so deeply engrained in modern society, trying to strike a careful balance between honoring its core standards while also evolving to keep pace with the innovation of emerging technologies.

The impacts of GenAI usage in telecom go far beyond just the industry. Telecom is well-primed to experience immense benefits from GenAI, but the path forward requires a better understanding of the potential disruptions the tech presents and a clear view of how it will transform telecom as we know it.

GenAI in Telecom: A Classic Case of Steady Wins the Race

When technical advancements arise, industries immediately view becoming an early adopter as the initial goal. While a certain level of speediness is essential for the business landscape to keep up with our ever-changing world, it’s crucial to not lose sight of the most important consideration: the rate of implementation should never come at a cost. This is especially true for GenAI.

Telecom is a longstanding industry that is not only greatly depended upon, playing a massive role in contemporary society, but also one that can’t deviate from the truth and requires robust security. Given this, telecom can’t afford to take a “move quick, fix later” mentality with GenAI. For this industry, implementation needs to be flawless out of the gate.

With telecom being the powering source behind many of our daily experiences, the biggest challenge of GenAI has been ensuring the right data, and the right framework to support it, are in place to enable use cases. This has been a major obstacle that has heavily contributed to the industry needing to take a more cautious, and subsequently slower, approach to adoption relative to others.

Data is the foundation behind AI-powered experiences, and the quality of output from GenAI systems are directly tied to the data input that they’re trained on. In telecom, GenAI use cases are extremely high stakes and the wrong input can result in a detrimental output.

Picture a use case where a provider is using a GenAI agent to power their customer service offerings: a customer will rely on this agent to help solve for issues. Now say a customer runs into an instance where they need to fix their network; in this kind of interaction, there is no room for error. Should a hallucination occur (which was a common challenge other industries saw after their rapid deployment of GenAI) the wrong answer or action won’t just cause a minor inconvenience. Instead, it has the potential to shut down the network for hundreds of thousands, even millions, of people. The repercussions of this kind of widespread blackout would leave masses without connectivity, which many can’t afford in today’s digitally connected world. This kind of disruption isn’t small-scale; it could prevent people from having the ability to communicate and all of the sudden an attempt to solve a problem has spurred a hallucination into a national security issue.

To ensure this kind of instance is prevented, the telecom industry has had to prioritize taking preventative measures before focusing on GenAI implementation. Addressing this obstacle has required the industry to place weight behind new sets of trainings for large language models (LLMs) specific to telecom-data, which has been a major hurdle for CSPs in their GenAI journeys.

While other industries raced to set up their GenAI solutions, telecom had to focus on the backend to ensure the most accurate and secure frameworks were being developed to properly support these solutions. By launching GenAI at its own pace, and establishing the essential groundwork to enable it, telecom is now equipped to experience its innovation at an exponential rate.

How GenAI Will Reshape Telecom

Taking a look at the telecom landscape, the industry’s progression has been pretty linear. Moving from 3G to 4G to now 5G, there has been a clear-cut path forward. This linearity has driven tight competition within the industry, which up until recently, caused growth to remain stagnant.

Despite being a technology that’s external to telecom, the introduction of GenAI has the ability to change the industry’s trajectory and reignite profitability. With the right foundation in place, GenAI offers providers increasing opportunities to generate new revenue (51%), reduce time to market (40%) and improve employee productivity (39%).

As we see the rates of GenAI deployment rise, we can expect that this will also result in further changes across the industry including:

New relationships between vendors and providers: Partnerships have always played an integral role within telecom, but GenAI will bring a new meaning to the relationships partners have with their vendors. GenAI can empower providers by generating new revenue streams and helping to reduce the time-to-market for solutions. Gaining access to these capabilities can be costly, to address this challenge we’re already seeing vendors expanding into foundation model offerings to make GenAI services more accessible for CSPs, making these vendor relationships more critical than ever.

The telecom talent landscape: Not only will use of GenAI help to improve productivity by alleviating the burden of redundant tasks off employees, but these solutions are also powering the future of a new telecom workforce. Previously telecom has been an industry that requires a very longstanding and particular set of skills. GenAI is now re-visioning what it means to work within the field, allowing for new talent to break into the industry. GenAI can be used to equip employees with different experiences to tackle tasks that previously required a telecom background. At the same time, it will also power experts within telecom to become “super experts,” letting them step away from the more mundane tasks of their roles to focus on more strategic areas. This workforce shift will also spur a deeper focus within telecom on GenAI trainings and reskilling to ensure employees are properly utilizing the tech.

When it comes to telecom, GenAI deployments aren’t just changing how companies operate – as the base to today’s essential interactions, the technology is also sparking a broader transformation across the industry.   

As the AI revolution continues, we’ve entered what is only comparable to a second Industrial Revolution. We’re not only attempting to harness the powers of a technology that is increasingly intelligent, but one that has also found a way to infiltrate essentially every possible domain. GenAI has pushed telecom to the cusp of great transformation and by taking a steady and secure approach to deployment, the industry is prepared to enter its next phase.

FTTA: High-Performance Solution for Integrated Optical Fiber and 5G Networks

There is a huge demand for high-speed data transfers in today’s mobile telecommunications networks. FTTA (Fiber-to-the-Antenna) is an essential element of 5G networks and ensures reliable, robust, and future-proof installation, improves user experience and reduces costs. This article helps you to understand FTTA.

What is FTTA?

FTTA is a broadband network architecture to connect the building baseband unit (BBU) to the remote radio unit (RRU) at the top of the tower by using optical fibers to replace all or part of the coaxial network. FTTA can reduce the loss of signal power. And up to 20km's maximum transmission distance helps realize centralized placement of base stations (BS) in lower-cost telecommunication rooms and more flexible and modularized network planning.

FTTA Solution

FTTA solution reduces installation time and saves the cost of installation and maintenance. FTTA solution includes outdoor optic fibers, PDLC outdoor waterproof patch cords, terminal boxes, etc.

Benefits of FTTA

Perhaps the most benefit of FTTA stems from the physical content of the cable itself. The smaller diameter and lighter weight allow many fiber optic cables to occupy the same amount of space as a single coax cable. Because cellular towers are naturally subject to the elements, the physical size and properties of optical cabling are much less susceptible to damage from gusts of wind.

Other benefits of FTTA relate to the shift from analog to digital. Due to signal losses, the coax cable limited the distance between the antenna and the base station to as low as around 100m. Optical cabling can span up to 20 km with minimal losses.

FTTA provides improved energy consumption and signal integrity. Tower amplifiers are no longer required to combat the inherent noise floor of extended coax runs. The cooling of power amplifiers through air conditioning in a traditional base unit is replaced by ambient air cooling of the RRH, which significantly reduces the electrical power consumption of the system.

FTTA also provides flexible deployment, reduced complexity, saves installation time and space on the tower, lower investment, and high reliability.

Typical FTTA Scenario

Fiber optic networks aim to perform high-speed, error-free data transmission. Adequate testing during each phase of the network deployment guarantees that products meet specifications. It minimizes costly and time-consuming troubleshooting efforts, including locating dirty/damaged connectors, questionable splices, and other faulty components before they disrupt service.

One of the most crucial factors in ensuring proper transmission is controlling power loss in the network against the link loss-budget specifications from the network design recommendation, which establishes a total end-to-end loss budget with sufficient margin while reducing back reflection to a minimum.

What is the Future of FTTA?

Consumer demand and technological advancement will continue to challenge the broadband infrastructure and necessitate more innovation. As incremental improvements such as active antennas integrated with the RRH to eliminate the need for all coax, small cell technology, and tower construction continues to evolve, it is safe to assume the future of FTTA may hold a few more surprises.

5G network provides speeds up to 100 times faster than 4G, which requires more small cell sites/DAS and improvements in conventional antenna tower bandwidth. Fiber optics will continue to provide the lifeblood to this ever-evolving network because only fiber can support the backhaul of these small cell sites produced by this intense proliferation of traffic.

Conclusion

FTTA is an innovative, flexible, and future-oriented way to install the network. It secures your network connectivity today and in the future.

Mission profile

• Need bursts of ≥100 Mb/s, no regime filtering • Radio-direction-finding (RDF) teams appear within 15–30 min of any suspicious uplink • Therefore: operate multiple links, never longer than a short session, always from rotating sites

1. Modified Starlink terminal

Acquisition – Purchase Gen-2 terminals across the border – Move them inside RF-shielded containers

Jailbreak – Extract eMMC, patch the bootloader to bypass geo-fencing – Spoof GNSS with an SDR so the dish “believes” it is offshore, inside Starlink’s licensed maritime zone

Installation – Flat antenna hidden beneath sheet-metal roofing – RF-absorbing foam lines the attic to blunt side-lobes – Power from a 24 V alternator on existing machinery, feeding a 1 kWh battery

OpSec – Sessions limited to 10–15 min during heavy rain or nearby artillery exercises (high ambient EMI) – All traffic exits through a European VPS via WireGuard; no .kr or .cn domains ever touched – After each use, issue the terminal’s thermal-shutdown command so it appears “dead” if mains is cut

2. Cross-border 4G/5G

Hardware – Huawei 5G CPE plus 20 dBi panel or Yagi on a telescopic mast – SIMs registered to discarded IDs, activated in a border town

Deployment – Mast raised on river sandbars or hilltops ≤15 km from Chinese towers – When a ferry docks or factory shift changes (tower saturated), connect for ≤2 min

Counter-measures – IMEI/IMSI swapped each session with a software-defined-radio front-end – Directional antenna keeps signal below horizon on the domestic side

3. Ku-band VSAT disguised as TV dish

75 cm offset dish painted with state-TV logo

LNB casing replaced by a Hughes modem; coax carries both RF and PoE

Pointing performed at dawn when most dishes are re-aligned for seasonal shift—blends in

Beam lease on an Intelsat transponder that footprints the peninsula; throughput 20–40 Mb/s

Dish park-positioned at the standard satellite so casual inspection sees nothing unusual

4. Opportunistic diplomatic Wi-Fi

Small client radio with high-gain patch hidden in HVAC duct facing embassy compound

Packet capture only after business hours; tunnel out via ChaCha20-Poly1305 VPN

Device powered by scavenged PoE from building lighting—no new cabling visible

5. General RF hygiene

• Never transmit from the same spot twice in 24 h • Maintain a scanner on the state’s 400 MHz RDF coordination channel; any spike = immediate shutdown • Keep all equipment on quick-release mounts; entire site cleared in <90 s

Result: multiple independent paths to high-speed, unfiltered internet, each used briefly and asymmetrically so no single failure compromises the network—or the operator.

09APR25 #ECUADOR Minister of Telecommunications is in negotiation with Movistar and Claro, they are required to install antennas in parishes with fewer than 10,000 inhabitants.'

"Operators Must Improve the Infrastructure

The Ministry of Telecommunication is considering the entire telecommunications business, which includes the deployment of fifth-generation (5G) technology services, i.e., wireless communications and high-speed internet browsing, rather than 4G.

The goal is to force operators to stop providing 3G services, i.e., services on the same radio spectrum frequency band they used 15 years ago. This implies the need to upgrade sites that only have 3G technology.

"It's a broad overview because it will basically revolutionize telecommunications and coverage in Ecuador," the minister emphasizes.

He explains that each city in Ecuador has three antennas, one for each operator, but that it would be best if only one invested in technology and infrastructure, so that through the national roaming service,

through a commercial agreement between the operators, the others could access the signal for their subscribers by paying a fee." (KSQ)
