Open RAN Architecture and Private Network Innovation - June 17, 2023

Learn about the evolution and architecture of Open RAN technology in this 45-minute technical lecture from the Asia Open RAN Academy. Explore the progression from traditional Distributed RAN (D-RAN) to Centralized RAN (C-RAN) and ultimately to Open RAN architectures. Gain insights into key concepts including functional splits, horizontal openness with open fronthaul, and the transition from virtualized to containerized implementations. Examine the O-RAN Alliance's role, decomposed RAN architecture, High Layer Split (HLS) and Low Layer Split (LLS) approaches, and understand the requirements for P5G Network-in-a-Box deployments. Master fundamental principles needed to work with modern open radio access network technologies and private network innovations.
