Course Overview

The Radio Access Network (RAN) is a key component of mobile operators’ infrastructure, as it provides the coverage and capacity necessary for subscribers to access voice and data services.

Motivated by the convergence of several technical, commercial and geopolitical factors, mobile network operators have been investigating and supporting a shift towards the use of virtualisation, disaggregation and open interfaces in the RAN. The hope is that opening up proprietary elements and interfaces in the RAN will increase competition in the telecoms equipment market by encouraging new, innovative vendors to enter the market.

This course examines the issues around a shift towards an open and disaggregated RAN, looks at alliances and initiatives in the Open RAN movement and examines the impact that these industry headwinds will have on the development of the 6G standard.

Course Objectives

  • Understand the fundamentals of open, virtualised and disaggregated RAN
  • Understand the ramifications – in terms of standards, deployment, network management, security and use cases – of a move towards Open RAN
  • Become knowledgeable about the challenges associated with current open and virtualised approaches to the RAN
  • Have insights into the geopolitical drivers for open interfaces and supply chain diversification in the mobile telecoms equipment market
  • Understand the policy and regulatory enablers for these new approaches to the RAN

Who Should Enrol on This Course?

  • Those who would benefit from an overview of Radio Access Networks, Open-RAN, disaggregated networks, and their interaction with, and impact on, 5G and next gen (6G) connectivity
  • Professionals from connected industries (e.g., MNVOS, carriers, manufacturers) who want to gain the GSMA’s perspective on this topic
