                                  The dominance among a few vendors in the mobile networks industry leads
                                  to increased costs and restricts innovation [1]. These closed ecosystems
                Problem           hinder transparency and coordination efforts, and the lack of open-source
                Addressed
                                  designs widens the gap between theoretical advancements and real-world
                                  implementation.

                                  The three modules for solving this problem are Echo for Open-Sourcing
                                  a library for 5G, 4G, GNSS, LoRa, etc, Zoozve for creating an integrated
                                  toolchain for AI and wireless baseband processing (WBP), and Venus for
                                  creating a Multi-Core Dataflow-Driven RISC-V Domain Specific Architec-
                                  ture for Integrated AI and WBP. The project aims to promote open-source
                                  baseband architecture, which encourages innovation and allows more
                Key Aspects of    companies to enter the market. By integrating AI with wireless baseband
                Solution
                                  processing, it  accelerates  technology  iteration  and  fosters  industrial
                                  development. The project reduces reliance on proprietary hardware and
                                  emphasizes open protocols, enabling small and medium enterprises and
                                  innovators to compete in telecommunications. Additionally, the RISC-V
                                  architecture, optimized for AI-WBP synergy, enhances energy efficiency
                                  and promotes sustainable industry practices.
