Fujitsu and NEC significantly improve efficiency of base station interoperability testing for the post-5G era
The interoperability testing time for base stations of different vendors was reduced by more than 30%, assuming the commercial environment of overseas telecommunications carriers (operators).
- The interoperability testing time for base stations of different vendors was reduced by more than 30%, assuming the commercial environment of overseas telecommunications carriers (operators).
- NEC and Fujitsu have jointly developed a technology to automate the testing of interoperability between base station equipment from various vendors at the O-RAN fronthaul (4).
- Reducing the interoperability testing time will enable operators to shorten the lead time for deploying systems that combine O-RAN compliant base station equipment from different vendors.
- The interface between the base unit (CU/DU) and the radio units (RU) of base station equipment standardized for O-RAN specifications.
