ADI and Keysight Collaborate to Accelerate O-RU Solution Development
Published2021.06.22 16:31Supports transitioning to a virtual RAN architecture
Analog Devices (ADI) and Keysight Technologies announced on the 22nd that they are collaborating to accelerate O-RU (O-RAN Radio Unit) network interoperability and compatibility testing.
The two companies are building a test bench for verifying the interoperability of a new O-RU, which includes ADI's Low-PHY baseband, software-defined transceivers, power supplies, and a clock integrated with an Intel FPGA. By leveraging Keysight's O-RAN emulation, signal generation, and analysis capabilities, various test processes can be enhanced, and test complexity and time can be reduced.
Kailash Narayanan, Executive Vice President and General Manager of Keysight’s Commercial Communications Group, said, “Both companies will accelerate O-RU development and interoperability testing by providing technologies and test solutions that connect wireless devices and core networks.”
Market research firm Dell'Oro predicted that O-RAN technology will account for more than 10% of the total RAN market by 2025. This collaboration between the two companies enables the telecommunications industry, which is transitioning to an open, segmented, and virtual RAN (vRAN) architecture, to seize opportunities.
Joe Barry, Vice President of ADI’s Wireless Communications Business, stated, “Through this collaboration, both companies will provide customers with a pathway to rapidly develop cost-effective, power-efficient, and interoperable O-RAN compliant O-RUs.”
Mobile operators can build multi-vendor network environments designed to provide the latest 5G services to enterprises in manufacturing, finance, transportation, logistics, and healthcare sectors through O-RAN infrastructure based on the O-RAN Alliance's open interface. Through O-RU performance verification and interoperability testing between network elements from the RAN edge to the 5G core (5GC), operators can deploy O-RAN in multi-vendor 5G networks.

SK Telecom First Applies AI-Based Network Operations at Gwanghwamun K-Pop Concert
SK텔레콤이 3월 21일 서울 광화문 일대에서 열린 대형 K-팝 공연에 AI 기반 네트워크 운영 시스템을 처음 적용해 통신 품질을 관리했다고 밝혔다. 공연 전후 3시간 동안 모바일 데이터 사용량은 12.15TB로 직전 주말 같은 시간대보다 약 2배 늘었다. SK텔레콤은 AI 시스템 ‘A-One’을 활용해 5분 단위, 50m 단위로 트래픽을 감시하며 과부하 가능성에 대응했고, 임시 통신 시설과 현장 인력 운영도 병행했다. 밀집 행사와 외국인 이용 수요가 동시에 늘어나는 환경에서 AI 기반 자율 네트워크 운영의 현장 적용 가능성을 확인한 사례로 해석된다.
