1、Why and how the telecom sector should accelerate its autonomous networks journeyNetworks with intelligence#GetTheFutureYouWantWhat are autonomous networks?Autonomous telco networks are networks that,under most conditions,can self-configure,self-monitor,self-optimize,and self-heal.As there are varied

2、 definitions and terminologies in use,this report takes TM Forums autonomous network maturity model as the industry benchmark.This model defines six levels of autonomous networks:L0 Manual management:The system delivers assisted monitoring capabilities,which means all dynamic tasks must be executed

3、manually.L1 Assisted management:The system executes a certain prefigured repetitive sub-task to increase efficiency.L2 Partial autonomous network:The system enables closed-loop operations and maintenance(O&M)based on an artificial intelligence(AI)model for certain units in certain environments.L3 Co

4、nditional autonomous network:Building on L2 capabilities,the system can sense real-time environmental changes,and,in certain network domains,optimize and adjust its operation to the external environment to enable intent-based closed-loop management.L4 Highly autonomous network:Building on L3 capabil

5、ities,in a more complicated cross-domain environment,conducts analysis and makes decisions based on predictive or active closed-loop management of service-and customer-experience-driven networks.L5 Fully autonomous network:The goal for telco network evolution.The system possesses closed-loop automat
