Buckle up; you are in for a year of energy optimization via AI claims. At MWC, Cisco showed us a behind-the-scenes view of a live deployment with an unnamed North American operator, which shows how these AIOps tools can be put to use. Taran Deshpande, a Technical Marketing Engineer, walked us through it. Running on Cisco’s Cell Site Router, specifically the NCS 540, the target application here is energy reduction, using the router itself to run algorithms that will detect traffic patterns, and then implement recommended rules. The system will observe the current energy and traffic pattern, and then run a simulation to determine what the best changes would be. Once analyzed, it can then make these recommendations, but the…
