ISLAMABAD : Zong, Pakistan’s leading information services and technology innovation company, has successfully completed the pilot launch of its Self-Intelligent Radio Access Network (RAN) Optimization Platform, marking a significant milestone in the evolution toward autonomous network operations.
The AI-powered platform introduces intelligent, self-optimizing capabilities that enable the network to detect, analyze, and resolve performance issues in real time. By eliminating manual intervention, the solution significantly reduces response times and enhances network efficiency, particularly during peak usage periods.
The platform enables self-healing mechanisms that automatically identify congestion and optimize traffic flow, ensuring consistent data speeds and improved service quality. Leveraging advanced machine learning algorithms, the system dynamically fine-tunes network parameters to deliver enhanced coverage and reliability across live environments.
The pilot deployment, conducted across 82 live sites, has already demonstrated measurable improvements in network performance and user experience. Automated optimization has resulted in more resilient connectivity, reduced latency, and greater service stability for customers.
Commenting on the development, Waqas Munim, Head of Digital Intelligence Zong said, “At Zong, we are transforming Pakistan’s telecom landscape with intelligent, autonomous networks. The successful pilot of our Self-Intelligent RAN Optimization Platform demonstrates how AI-driven innovation can enhance network efficiency, reduce manual intervention, and deliver an exceptional experience for our customers. This milestone is a key step toward building a future-ready, resilient digital ecosystem across Pakistan.”
The successful pilot reinforces Zong’s commitment to leveraging AI-driven innovation to strengthen Pakistan’s digital infrastructure and deliver reliable, future-ready connectivity nationwide.
