Russia plans to use artificial intelligence to accelerate mobile internet by creating national AI platforms for managing communication networks, with pilot projects showing up to 30% higher network capacity and 50% lower latency.
Consensus
- Russia plans to use artificial intelligence to improve mobile internet speed.
- The Ministry of Digital Development is proposing amendments to create national AI platforms for managing communication networks.
- AI will be used for dynamic radio frequency spectrum allocation and network load forecasting.
- Pilot projects by Russian telecom operators have demonstrated a 20–30% increase in network capacity and a 50% reduction in latency.
- AI will also be used for detecting fraudulent calls and protecting against DDoS attacks.
- AI systems are already being used by Russian operators for network monitoring and analytics.
Points of divergence
- Two-thirds of Wi-Fi routers in Russian homes are outdated and affect internet quality, with 68.2% operating in the 2.4 GHz band; the highest share is in Chechnya, Karachay-Cherkessia, Ingushetia, and Dagestan, while the lowest is in St. Petersburg, Khanty-Mansi Autonomous Okrug, Murmansk Oblast, and Moscow. — m24
- AI can increase mobile internet speed not only on 5G but also on existing LTE networks. — m24
- AI manages traffic distribution, radio parameter optimization, and real-time fault diagnostics, automatically reconfiguring resources. — m24
