AI in Cellular Networks Market: 2025-2029

Our AI in Cellular Networks research suite provides operators and AI in network vendors with analysis and actionable insights. It also includes data which enables stakeholders in the market, such as mobile network operators (MNOs) and network AI vendors, to make informed decisions on business strategy for their involvement with AI in networks. The research suite covers eight case studies into operators’ AI in cellular networks deployments, as well as a further case study for Indosat Ooredoo Hutchison’s AI-RAN strategy. These case studies include:

• AT&T
• China Mobile
• Deutsche Telekom
• Telefónica
• SK Telecom
• stc
• Verizon
• Vodafone

Each of these case studies breaks down how a leading operator is deploying and innovating with AI in their networks, with analysis from Juniper Research on the core strengths of their deployments and innovations, and evaluation of how these deployments position the operator in the future. This allows other operators and network AI vendors to understand how those at the forefront of the market are approaching network AI; supporting informed decision-making and strategy formulation.

The research suite also includes a breakdown of the key goals of operators’ AI in networks deployments, with analysis of how Juniper Research expects these goals to evolve in the future. This is coupled with strategic analysis of key concepts and technologies, including AI in Radio Access Network (RAN), the AI-RAN Alliance, the development of horizontal RAN stacks, sovereign AI, AI in network planning, AI in network maintenance, and AI in network slicing and differentiated connectivity.

It further provides recommendations and assessments on how operators can use AI to improve their network security, as well as protect their own AI deployments from fraudsters and malicious actors, and strategic analysis of how operators can maximise the impact of AI in their datacentres and cloud infrastructure. Through this, operators, network AI vendors, and other stakeholders can effectively evaluate and make informed business decisions regarding different areas of AI deployments.

As well as this, the report offers insight into technologies and standards including agentic AI, TeleManagement (TM) Forum’s Autonomous Networks, 6G, large language model (LLM), and the GSMA’s Open-Telco LLM Benchmarks. Accompanied by Juniper Research’s recommendations and analysis, each of these sections identifies future development opportunities and strategies, in addition to providing an understanding of key trends.

The market forecast suite includes several different options that can be purchased separately, including access to data mapping and a forecast document, a strategy and trends document detailing critical trends in the market, and strategic recommendations for monetising and innovating AI in cellular networks.

The research suite includes a Competitor Leaderboard, which can be purchased separately; containing analysis and market sizing for 16 leading network AI vendors, who each provide operators with software for AI in network deployments.

Collectively, the suite provides a critical tool for understanding the AI in cellular networks market allowing operators, AI in network vendors, and other stakeholders to optimise their future business and product development strategies for the market; providing a competitive advantage over their rivals.
