Naos Overview
Naos is a cloud-native automation platform for wireless network planning and optimisation.
Naos provides mobile network operators (MNOs) with a framework for automating RAN planning and optimisation workflows in order to achieve end-to-end network automation. It delivers off-the-shelf scalable computation capabilities for massive path loss calculations and coverage predictions. Naos enables automated 5G mobile network deployments, country-wide pathloss and coverage calculations, business logic implementation in the RAN, process-oriented RAN planning, dedicated optimisation applications and more.
Helping MNOs scale automated RAN planning and optimisation processes
Naos allows automating and scaling RAN planning functions into enterprise-wide engineering processes based on operators’ business and technical logic. Naos enables massive and repetitive RAN planning operations to be automated, such as nation-wide coverage predictions, 5G site selection and legacy site decommissioning, neighbour/code planning and more.
Naos supports 5G NR, 4G LTE, and multi-technology radio access networks. It is compatible with Atoll and uses the same field-proven logic and algorithms adapted to service-based automation environments. Naos is deployable on premises or in the cloud.
Naos allows designing automated RAN planning processes through a workflow management user interface, and through REST APIs that allow programming and integration with business and 3rd party applications with multiple programming languages such as Python, Java, C#, and C++.
Highlights
Naos combines RAN planning and optimisation features with powerful APIs and services enabling wireless operators to automate RAN planning and optimisation processes.
Advanced RAN Planning and Optimisation Automation Services
Naos delivers advanced RAN planning and optimisation automation services to enterprise applications within operators’ RAN automation ecosystems or through an in-built workflow management interface. Naos services include advanced propagation modelling and coverage predictions, automatic cell planning (ACP), neighbour planning (ANR), PCI/PRACH RSI planning services, as well as live network data services enabling to leverage crowdsourced and trace data.
AI-based Planning and Optimisation
Naos future-proof architecture allows for big-data management and AI/ML task processing. Naos provides MNOs with a path towards next generation automated RAN planning and optimisation, integrated with O-RAN architecture and components (RIC, rApps).
Cloud-native Scalable Architecture
Naos is based on a cloud-native service-oriented architecture that allows for a flexible and scalable deployment in the cloud or on premises. Orchestration and calculation microservices provide operators with flexibility and dynamic scalability to support complex and large-scale calculations.

Atoll Compatibility
Naos is compatible with our flagship product Atoll RF planning and optimisation software and uses the same data structure and algorithms, allowing operators to get proven and consistent results across the entire RAN planning and optimisation chain, from advanced interactive processes to fully automated workflows.
