The project will be used to test and demonstrate a multiple operator, neutral host solution using an Open RAN ecosystem.

O-RANOS main motivation is to address key architectural and technological challenges for deploying end-to-end O-RAN multi-domain (private-public) interoperable networks.

Almost every piece of 5G hardware requires multiple semiconductor switching devices to generate the signals being transmitted. Gallium nitride (GaN) switching devices are used in a wide range of applications from consumer electronics to defence radar systems.

Proteus is breaking open the proprietary nature of mobile base stations by creating a flexible layer of software which interfaces directly to the radio hardware. This will allow companies, large and small, outside the handful of big vendors to develop competitive products which are quicker to market.

The project will develop ground-breaking, UK-made, scalable, cost-effective optical interface technology, to enable the dense roll out of optical fibre 5G radio access networks with open digital interfaces for interoperability and low latency.

This project uses world leading British expertise to develop a more efficient PA, for base stations with a power output of up to 10W, along with the hardware and software needed to drive it in a flexible and secure manner. This will work alongside a radio architecture developed by the project.

The Towards AI project uses artificial intelligence and machine learning, along with the latest advances in cloud technology to optimise the network more efficiently.

Although the smallest project in FRANC in terms of funding, the FRAT project packs a punch and will produce equipment to be used in the development of mobile base station infrastructure.

View the slideware from the DCMS briefing event.

DCMS has launched a £25m competition to enable academics and the telecoms industry to conduct early-stage research into open and interoperable telecoms solutions, such as Open Radio Access Network (Open RAN), for us in 5G and future networks such as 6G.

This guide has been created to highlight the specific skills required to
make the most out of 5G and other forms of advanced connectivity, including tips and advice as well as case studies.

This report has been commissioned by Digital Catapult to provide an informative and realistic appraisal of the Private Network landscape in the UK.

THE UK'S MOST IMPORTANT CONNECTIVITY EVENT

Where UK connectivity leaders from across the public and private sector come to meet.

About Connected Britain

Connected Britain is the UK’s most important connectivity event, bringing together the leaders driving Britain’s digital economy.

The European Parliament is currently preparing a major regulation in the field of Artificial Intelligenc

Vodafone and NTT DOCOMO, INC. (DOCOMO) today published a joint white paper (see below) offering advice to the wider operator and vendor community when testing the integration of key Open RAN software and hardware building blocks.

The role of the Radiocommunication Sector is to ensure the rational, equitable, efficient and economical use of the radio- frequency spectrum by all radiocommunication services.

To address the security challenges presented by emerging quantum technologies, many countries have created national Post-Quantum Cryptography (PQC) initiatives.
