Security

Security is a key area of the R&D center. We will work on all aspects related to this subject. In this domain, we will work on standardization, having close cooperation with our customers and the whole security eco-system to understand their challenges and demands in more detail, and conduct penetration testing and vulnerability analysis.

Serviceability

Reliability, availability and manageability are the cornerstones of our second area, Serviceability. In this domain we will have java software developers working with tools that are used for example with roll out of 5G systems. We are working in an agile way together with other Ericsson’s R&D development teams globally.

End-to-end solutions

The third area we will be working on is end-to-end solutions. In this unit, we will work with 5G Core on network level as well as Private and Campus Network solutions.

AI Research & System

We are also working on AI (Artificial Intelligence) Research in areas such as cause and effect, reliability, and systemic functions of AI. Collaborators are also working on systematization and development of AI functionality for RAN (Radio Access Network) and 5G Core.

Standards & Technology

At the Ericsson France R&D center, this area aims to standardize technologies, employees work on the cloud and develop a new industry for security research. This pole also has a support role for Artificial Intelligence and Automation.

Cloud RAN

This division is exclusively dedicated to RAN development. Within the Cloud RAN Cloud Experience and Services PEU we create AI-powered software for RAN software lifecycle management, assurance and optimization.
