O-RAN Development

With the exponential growth of 5G applications (e.g., immersive AR/VR, IoT ecosystems, video-on-demand), the traditional 5G Core becomes overloaded with compute-heavy and latency-sensitive tasks. This leads to:

• Network congestion at the Core site.
• High latency, making real-time applications impractical.
• Limited scalability for next-generation services.

• MEC Platform (MEP): For hosting edge applications.
• MEP Manager: For resource allocation and application lifecycle management.
• MEC Orchestrator: For coordinating MEC services with the 5G Core and RAN.

Deploy MEC nodes close to end-users to process data locally, minimizing backhaul traffic.

Ensure full compliance with ETSI MEC standards to guarantee interoperability with existing 5G systems.

• Ultra-low latency: Real-time responses for AR/VR and IoT applications.
• Reduced Core congestion: Heavy workloads processed at the edge, freeing Core resources.
• Enhanced user experience: Faster content delivery (e.g., video caching at the edge).
• Scalability: Flexible integration of new applications without Core reconfiguration.
• Standards-compliant: ETSI alignment ensures ecosystem compatibility and easier adoption.

• Seamless integration of MEC with a 5G Core and gNB.
• AR/VR applications operated smoothly at the edge with significant latency reduction.
• Video caching reduced Core site traffic by more than 40%, improving throughput and user satisfaction.
• The architecture proved to be future-ready, enabling quick adoption of additional IoT and 5G services.
