VLAIO funded projects enable Accelleran to showcase use of open RAN technology
Summary
The VLAIO funded 5GECO project will start this summer and run for 24 months - with the objective being to reduce the capital and operational expenses associated with 5G deployments. The investment needed to build a radio access network (RAN) will be minimised by active sharing of the infrastructure in a neutral host model. By taking an Open RAN approach and leveraging artificial intelligence (AI) for orchestration and optimisation, it will be possible for multiple tenants to share network infrastructure. This ‘intelligent neutral hosting’ will result in more optimized spectrum usage, compared to current network sharing strategies, so higher service level agreements can be delivered without excessive overprovisioning. Extensive trials will then be done in relation to controlling automated guided vehicles (AGVs) at a factory site on land, plus unmanned marine vessels over an offshore network.
