The companies are collaborating to create a robust test bench to
verify the interoperability of a new O-RU that includes ADI’s
low-PHY baseband, software defined transceiver, power, and clock
integrated with an Intel© FPGA. Applying Keysight’s Open RAN
emulation, signal generation and signal analysis capabilities to a
wide range of use cases improves the testing process, reducing
complexity and testing time.
“We are pleased to align our resources with ADI, a leader in
O-RU technology solutions, to help service providers realize the
full potential of the O-RAN specifications,” said Kailash
Narayanan, Vice President and General Manager of Keysight’s
Commercial Communications Group. “Keysight and ADI offer technology
and test solutions that create an effective bridge between the
radio unit and the core network, resulting in accelerated
development and interoperability testing.”
Open RAN technology is expected to account for more than 10
percent of the overall radio access network market by 2025,
according to the Dell-Oro Group. The ADI and Keysight collaboration
addresses commercial opportunities in this industry that is
transitioning towards open, disaggregated and virtualized RAN
(vRAN) architectures.
“As a result of combining our technology, tools and design
resources, ADI and Keysight are able to provide the O-RAN ecosystem
with a robust platform to quickly develop reliable O-RUs,” said Joe
Barry, Vice President of Wireless Communications at Analog Devices.
“By working together, we offer our customers the fastest path for
developing cost-effective, power-efficient, and interoperable O-RAN
based O-RUs.”
An Open RAN infrastructure, based on O-RAN ALLIANCE open
interfaces, enables mobile operators
to create a robust multi-vendor network environment designed to
streamline the delivery of advanced 5G services for enterprises in
manufacturing, financing, transportation, logistics and healthcare.
Performance validation of O-RUs and interoperability testing
between network elements from the edge of the RAN to the 5G core
(5GC) allows mobile operators to effectively deploy O-RAN in
multi-vendor 5G networks.
