Toward standardization of GenAI-driven agentic architectures for radio access networks

This is the authors' abstract. We don't add key points for this paper.

The adoption of Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI) in Radio Access Networks (RAN) presents new opportunities for automation and intelligence across network operations. GenAI-powered agents, leveraging Large Language Models (LLMs), can enhance planning, execution, and decision-making for orchestration and real-time optimisation of 6G networks. Standardizing the implementation of the Agentic architecture for RAN is now essential to establish a unified framework for RANOps and AgentOps. One of the key challenges is to develop a blueprint that incorporates best practices for memory integration, tool generation, multi-agent orchestration, and performance benchmarking. This study highlights key areas requiring standardization, including agent tool specifications, RAN-specific LLM fine-tuning, validation frameworks, and AI-friendly documentation. We propose a dedicated research initiative on GenAI-for-RAN and GenAI-on-RAN to address these gaps and advance AI-driven network automation.
