Ericsson Canada has partnered with a group of Montreal-based universities to explore how artificial intelligence (AI) can help the telecommunications sector minimize the energy consumption of 5G networks.
In a release, the vendor said that this strategic research program will be led by École de technologie supérieure (ÉTS), in partnership with Concordia University, Polytechnique Montréal and Environment and Climate Change Canada (ECCC).
The project aims to help communication service providers reduce their carbon footprint and cut operational costs by saving on energy.
