Keynote: O-RAN: Goals and Challenges - Olivier Simon, Director, Radio Innovation, Orange Labs Networks
This presentation will explain how O-RAN will trigger more intelligence and openness in the RAN domain. We will see which use cases require this new architecture and why O-RAN is coming at the right time. Major architectural change are necessary in the next years in order to improve E2E latency and benefit from the flexibility of virtualized network functions. O-RAN will provide the right framework in order to perform this transformation in an open manner and keeping at the same time economies of scale thanks to a global adoption.
