Nokia has been granted an extension deal by Bharti Airtel to deploy 4G and 5G equipment across key Indian cities and states. As per the contract, Nokia will deploy equipment from its cutting-edge 5G AirScale portfolio including base stations, baseband units and the latest generation of Massive MIMO radios, all powered by its energy-efficient ReefShark System-on-Chip technology.

These solutions will enhance Airtel’s network with 5G capacity and coverage and support its network evolution. Furthermore, Nokia will modernise Airtel's existing 4G network with multiband radios
and baseband equipment, which can also support 5G.
Airtel will also be leveraging Nokia's MantaRay Network Management for intelligent network monitoring and management that uses AI-based tools covering digital deployment, optimization and technical support.
Gopal Vittal, Vice Chairman and MD, Bharti Airtel, said " This strategic partnership with Nokia will future proof our network infrastructure and
provide customers with unparalleled user experience along with a network that will be eco friendly to minimise environmental impact.”

Pekka Lundmark, President and CEO of Nokia, said “ Our industry-leading
AirScale portfolio and AI-based services will enhance the energy efficiency of Airtel’s network, enabling premium 5G capacity and connectivity with the highest quality of service for subscribers.”

Nokia has collaborated with Airtel for over two decades, providing 2G, 3G, 4G, and 5G network equipment. They have recently launched Green 5G
Initiative, aimed at improving the energy efficiency of Airtel's network and reducing carbon emissions.
