Nokia has announced it has signed a 5G expansion agreement with Taiwan Mobile to accelerate the evolution towards AI-native mobile networks across Taiwan. The agreement reinforces Nokia’s role as a trusted long-term partner and supports Taiwan Mobile’s goals of enhancing network performance, automation and sustainability.
Under the agreement, Nokia will deploy its latest AirScale portfolio, including next-generation baseband and radio solutions, alongside advanced software capabilities to enhance Taiwan Mobile’s existing network infrastructure and enable new 5G services and monetisation opportunities. The partnership builds on the companies’ shared vision of integrating AI across mobile networks to create highly automated, resilient and energy-efficient networks capable of supporting the increasing AI traffic.
The deployment introduces a comprehensive set of AI-driven capabilities spanning network intelligence, infrastructure, sustainability and resilience.
The new deal will expand 5G capacity and optimise network performance through the deployment of advanced radios and next-generation baseband solutions. These upgrades will support enhanced throughput, improved spectrum efficiency and the delivery of premium user experiences. In parallel, the integration of AI-driven network management and automation solutions will enable predictive maintenance, reduce operational complexity and lower total cost of ownership while supporting the introduction of new 5G capabilities such as slicing and RedCap.
“Our collaboration with Nokia is a key pillar in our strategy to build a high-performance, resilient and sustainable network that powers our fast-growing and ever-expanding Telco+Tech businesses. By integrating AI across our network for better energy optimisation, resilience and service innovation, we are creating a platform that supports next-generation applications delivered with industry-leading experiences for our customers,” said Jamie Lin, President of Taiwan Mobile.
