Barcelona, March 5, GNA – Huawei Technologies has launched the industry’s first AI Core Network, marking a transformative leap from AI-powered to AI-native infrastructure.
The AI Core Network will be an autonomous generative network capable of self-optimization and self-O&M, enabling the whole industry to evolve from connecting everything intelligently to seamlessly interlinking AI-driven agents, terminals, and scenarios.
Mr George Gao, President of Huawei Cloud Core Network Product Line, speaking at the launch during the Mobile World Conference (MWC 2025) in Barcelona, Spain said as AI reshaped industries, intelligent terminals and services demand core networks that transcended traditional connectivity.
The MWC Barcelona 2025 opened on March 3 and is expected to end on March 6, 2025 on the theme: “Converge. Connect. Create.”
He said to address the issue, the core network needed to deliver a future-proof foundation with integrated capabilities in connectivity, computing, perception, memory, and digital twin simulation.
He said designed to serve individuals, households, enterprises, and AI agents, it addressed multi-dimensional demands for personalized intelligent services.
He said Huawei’s AI Core Network rollout will come with a 5G-A Intelligent Core (phase 1), where the network integrates AI agents to enhance intelligent network capabilities.
Additionally, by introducing computing-network convergence, the network can boost intelligent computing capabilities for terminals while overcoming their computing power and energy efficiency bottlenecks.
The President said there would also be an Agentic Core (phase 2), leveraging the AI-based architecture (AIBA), where the network would be an autonomous generative network capable of self-optimization and self-O&M, dynamically adapting to diverse real-time service needs.
Mr Gao emphasised that Huawei’s 5G-A Intelligent Core equips operators with three types of AI agents to claim three intelligence entries and monetize intelligence.
In addition, Huawei is building intelligent distributed computing infrastructure featuring low-latency and high-bandwidth, to provide computing and network convergence services to terminals and industries.
He called on agents to process multi-modal inputs (voice, video, gestures) to transform traditional dial pads into intent-driven task managers, facilitating one-stop closed-loop of service tasks and capturing service entry opportunities.
He said they needed to personalise experience agents to dynamically schedule network resources for differentiated user experiences, redefining user experience, providing operators with an entry to experience monetization.
He said digital expert agents resolve complaints and alarms via natural language interaction and AI inference, streamlining O&M through a unified portal.
To further empower these agents, Huawei also introduces Telco Intelligent Converged Cloud, upgrading traditional infrastructure with unified hardware management.
It introduces an AI engine, and builds the FusionMind AI enablement platform, to deliver robust computing resources and high-performance training/inference services, ensuring powerful intelligence.
Mr Gao said, “The AI core network will become a critical telecom infrastructure in the mobile AI era.”
He said Huawei would work with telecom operators and industry partners to seize the opportunities of digital and intelligent development.
He said they would go beyond from introducing AI to the core network to leveraging AI and the core network for innovative services, and accelerate the transition to an intelligent world.
