According to AI TIMES, SK Telecom said it reduced the time needed to prepare for communications quality management from five days to 30 minutes by deploying its own AI operations system for the fireworks festival around Yeouido and Ichon Hangang Park on Sept. 5. Based on on-site data from last year, the company plans to predict event traffic and add temporary facilities such as mobile base stations, along with reinforcing fixed infrastructure. The core of the response is an AI system that integrates wireless network operations, detects event information in real time, and identifies potential congestion in advance. That allows the company to automatically calculate the required scale of equipment and deployment locations, while responding more quickly to changes on site. In particular, it widened the scope of network operations to cover not only major viewing spots but also nearby areas where crowds may spread. The company said it will run both advance prediction and real-time response so that users can enjoy the festival without communications inconvenience.

Perspective

This move shows that communications response for large-scale events is shifting away from simple capacity expansion and toward operations centered on prediction and automation. The fact that preparation time has been sharply reduced suggests that the same level of manpower can manage more sites, and that in the future, the ability to judge and deploy quickly in spaces with sudden demand will likely become the standard for service quality. In the end, on-site communications quality is becoming an area shaped not just by the number of devices, but by the sophistication of the operating system that drives them.
