and considered as an optimal solution to enhance capacity and coverage, while reducing latency caused by increased traffic. Though the virtualized nature of cloud RAN is thought as a challenging approach to replace the traditional, distributed RAN architecture, the ...
Virtual RAN – The Next Step Virtual RAN, based on the hardware architecture of Cloud RAN, provides an abstraction or emulation layer, which is fully or in some degrees, connected to the hardware platform, to perform the RAN functions. Thus, the...
The Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) concept emerged as one of the most compelling architectures to meet the requirements of the 5G vision. In essence, C-RAN provides an advanced mobile network architecture which can leverage challenging features such as network resource slicing, statistical ...
are designed to simplify and accelerate the deployment of Cloud RAN based on open architecture – Open RAN. By tackling the complex challenges of integrating various building blocks and components, the pre-integrated approach drastically reduces the time, cost, and effort required for network ...
Marvell works with RAN and cloud ecosystem partners to develop and deploy 5G accelerator cards powered by OCTEON 10 Fusion® processors – built on baseband technology widely proven in leading 5G networks worldwide – in a PCIe card format. The innovative OCTEON 10 Fusion architecture leverages co...
CloudRAN architecture adopts multi-connectivity technology to overcome the complexity of a multi-standard, multi-band, and multi-layer integration environment. It can also be applied to terminals for the optimum user experience. The industry agrees that 5G and LTE multiple connectivity are the future...
In a C-RAN architecture, the LTE base station con- sists of the baseband unit (BBU) and the remote radio head (RRH). The BBU performs baseband processing and provides higher layer functionality and communica- tion with the core network. The RRH is responsible for radio functions, signal ...
NVIDIA Aerial SDK is built ground up with microservices and cloud-native architecture, providing a solid foundation for building and deploying 5G RAN-in-the-Cloud. Built, deployed, and managed in the cloud The O-RAN alliance initiative to disaggregate traditional radio base stations into RRU, vDU...
A 5G, cloud-native, radio access network (CloudRAN) is a software-defined computing architecture that brings real-time, high-bandwidth, low-latency access to 5G communications. CloudRANs are ideal for both centralized and distributed RAN architectures. ...
However, this architecture poses many challenges. The first one is related to the clustering of the various deployed RRH to better serve end-users. For that, we propose a two-stage RRH clustering mechanism in order to fully exploit the benefits of C-RAN architecture. The second challenge is ...
