Node-H O-RAN technology underpins 5G use cases in CampusOS Reference Testbed in Germany
Summary
The Node-H technology used in the topcon demonstrator includes multiple 5G SA outdoor radio cells. The applications can then use algorithms with Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning to make decisions about the configuration of the cell. Use cases implemented at the topcon reference testbed were a Neutral Host for Nomadic Networks by brown-iposs, test systems to help simplify the deployment of 5G networks by Rohde & Schwarz, an O-RAN O1 Performance Monitoring system by the Technical University of Berlin, an Edge Video Orchestrator by Smart Mobile Labs, a 5G Multi-Purpose Robot platform by Fraunhofer HHI and an O-RAN Network Management and Optimization platform by Fraunhofer FOKUS. These cells allow campuses, hospitals, offices, smart factories and other industrial locations to benefit from powerful Private 5G networks. The high-performance, fully integrated software was designed for cost-optimized SoC small cells platforms.
