She said that while Rakuten has the luxury of building a greenfield mobile network in Japan using virtualization strategies, existing networks must cope with their technology silos and hardware-centric infrastructure. Parallel Wireless is not involved with Rakuten. Instead, it has developed virtualization technology for legacy networks.Jordan explained that there are 8 RAN split options based on what functions get moved to the baseband unit. “RAN split is splitting the MAC digital processing from the PHY physical/RRH, which does radio processing,” she said. “The higher the split, the more digital processing functionality gets moved to the BBU, or we call it vRU. And the RRH itself is only left with radio processing. For Inland, we are using RAN split 7, just like Rakuten.”She said Parallel’s software also expands into the core. “The functionalities that are included in our software are not based on gateway functionality, they’re based on services that customers need to run to route the traffic, secure it, prioritize it and optimize it,” said Jordan. “Our software provides all that because we virtualize all those functions that were traditionally boxes.”Inland’s deployment with Parallel brings more processing power to the edge of the network, which is an architectural shift that is being adopted as part of 5G. Steve Libby, VP of sales for North America at Parallel, said Inland has a data center that will support remote cell sites. “Our architecture is basically software on a server that manages the remote RF endpoints,” he said. For Inland, “it’s multiple dozens of cell sites,” he said. “They’ve got existing sites for densification and they’ve also got new sites.” -- ???????? | |||
