NIx for your chosen system
NIx for your chosen system
Process automation and orchestration improve the performance of any system. Whether you manage the network directly via OSS, optimise your RAN via a C-SON system or, indeed, start to dive into the OpenRAN standards (i.e O-RAN ALLIANCE, Telecom Infra Project, etc) and explore xApps/rApps via a RIC platform, the NIx platform offers a portfolio of applications that are adaptable to any of the ecosystems: you decide which one.
OSS
The traditional Operations Support Systems, where all what relates to networks (i.e. order management, network inventory management and network operations) is managed
C-SON
The Centralised Self- Organising Network system makes the management of mobile radio access networks simpler and faster, and inter-works with cells supplied by different equipment vendors
RIC
A RAN Intelligent Controller brings multivendor interoperability, intelligence, agility, and programmability to radio access networks by implementing radio access technology (RAT)

Discover our use case-focused, data-driven AI/ML solutions
Depending on the specific stage of the Autonomous Network Journey you are in, you may find refreshing to discover use-case focused solutions that leverage the power of AI/ML. Here are some of the most popular examples at a glance:
Apps that make a difference
Energy Saver
Advanced power saving
features orchestrator
The App manages the switching on and off of the radio resources based on forecasting of traffic demand and performance. It orchestrates the activation of the power consumption features implemented by the different equipment vendors considering the topology, configuration and forecasted performance data of network elements such as traffic, number of active users, etc.
For a more comprehensive view on energy saving for mobile operators, read our related blog.
The Energy Saver solution supports network operators with the optimisation of their power consumption by orchestrating the energy saving functions of their RAN equipment, regardless of the vendor. It minimises their energy costs based on highly customisable energy saving policies, without causing any service degradation that could negatively impact service performance.
Real-life implementations have demonstrated that the solution achieves a reduction of up to 15% of the life cycle cost.

Smart planner
of existing capacity
The Smart Planner solution helps to make the most of the current capacity to maximise traffic and users before a decision on expensive capacity expansion is considered and taken.
Supervisor
and degradation remediation
The Supervisor solution identifies degradations of the network through continuous unattended network supervision and automatically remediates them to fully recover the expected service level.
Footprint
user distribution automation
The Automatic Cell Footprint Optimisation solution, developed using our Footprint App, identifies the inefficiencies of the radio spectrum utilisation. Using advanced AI/ML models, the powerful algorithms identify abnormal cell coverage and then recommend the corrections required to achieve optimal configuration on the network.
Explore our Automatic Cell Footprint Optimisation solution
The Spectrum Efficiency solution goes a step further. Once it has identified the cells that either overshoot or undershoot their intended coverage areas and proposed the recommended corrections, it automates the appropriate adjustments of the electrical tilt of their antenna, closing the loop. The corrections applied result in an increase of the throughput values, a more comprehensive traffic load distribution and an optimum use of the spectrum.
