Forsk is redefining RAN planning with AI-powered propagation modelling designed for speed, accuracy, and automation. By leveraging deep learning and Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs), we eliminate traditional path loss calculation bottlenecks and enable near–real-time RAN planning and optimisation.

Through collaboration with a leading North American wireless operator, Forsk has developed a hybrid AI-powered propagation engine for Naos that integrates real user-experience data into the training process. The result is a next-generation solution delivering up to 100× faster calculations, improved real-network accuracy, and a single universal model deployable across markets.

This innovation is a key step towards autonomous RAN planning and optimisation.

About Forsk
Forsk is an independent software company providing operators and vendors with wireless network design and optimisation products. 

Atoll, Forsk's flagship product, is a multi-technology wireless network design and optimisation software that allows operators to streamline planning and optimisation activities by combining predictions and live network data. With more than 11,000 installed licenses in over 140 countries, Atoll has become the industry standard for wireless network design and optimisation.

Naos is Forsk's automation platform dedicated to wireless network planning and optimisation. Naos is a cloud-native platform that enables operators to scale and automate planning and optimisation processes through on-premises or cloud-based deployments. Typical use cases include 5G site selection as well as massive coverage calculations and optimisation processes.

Atoll One is a dedicated version of Atoll, specifically designed for the planning and optimisation of small to medium-sized outdoor and indoor Private Mobile Networks.

Atoll and Naos provide operators with a comprehensive framework for integrated, interactive, fully automated and scalable wireless network planning and optimisation. Atoll and Naos are available from Forsk's offices and technical support centres in France, USA, and China, as well as from a worldwide network of distributors and partners.
