New technical report – initiated and led by Mavenir – evaluates an open interface specification support between DUs for carrier aggregation in multi-vendor deployments
RICHARDSON, Texas, Oct 30 (Bernama-GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Mavenir, the cloud-native network infrastructure provider building the future of networks, today welcomes the publication of a new Technical Report by the O-RAN ALLIANCE, ‘Spectrum Aggregation for Multi-Vendor Deployments’, that evaluates multiple spectrum aggregation techniques and proposes an open interface specification support between DUs for carrier aggregation in multi-vendor deployments.The O-RAN ALLIANCE report – which was initiated and led by Mavenir – sets out the practical scenarios for spectrum aggregation across equipment from multiple network equipment vendors comparing different approaches and includes a recommendation for specification development for carrier aggregation in multi-vendor RAN deployment. The carrier aggregation solution using an open interface between DUs has gathered significant support from operators and vendors to pursue specification development within the O-RAN ALLIANCE.
Commenting on the report, Dr. Sridhar Rajagopal, Senior Vice President, Access Technologies for Mavenir and rapporteur for the technical report, said: “This report from the O-RAN ALLIANCE, with its welcome set of recommendations on multi-vendor carrier aggregation, could not come at a more pivotal time for Open RAN as spectrum discussions continue for expanding 5G deployments and with 6G on the horizon. Standardizing the interface between DUs for multi-vendor carrier aggregation will remove single vendor stickiness and will be a game changer for Open RAN.”
