The white paper reviews the future prospects of vRAN base station equipment for telcos, leveraging the collective expertise of the two companies in network construction and operation. In addition to outlining expectations for base station equipment vendors, the paper provides technical insights tailored for telcos.
One of the two main themes of the paper is the direction of technological advancements crucial for the adoption of vRAN base station equipment. It highlights three key future requirements:
- Increased processing capacity and reduced power consumption
- Early implementation of key virtualization capabilities, including resource pooling, scaling, and auto-healing
- Enhanced integration technology and tools for vRAN base station equipment
The paper's other main theme is on accelerator technologies for signal processing in vRAN base station equipment. It centers on conducting technical analysis of capacity, power consumption, and complexity across different accelerator structures and network architectures based on proprietary studies.
