Asian companies KT, NTT Docomo and Fujitsu, together with SOLiD, Keysight Technologies and Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institute (ETRI), said they have successfully conducted an interoperability test using virtualised Open RAN (O-RAN) in South Korea.
In a release, the partners said that the test was performed earlier this month at the 5G Testbed Center, operated by the Ministry of Science and ICT and the National Information Society Agency (NIA) in the city of Pangyo, South Korea.
The five companies and ETRI also said they had participated in the O-RAN plugfest for spring 2023, which was hosted by the O-RAN Alliance. O-RAN PlugFest is a global demonstration event where the openness and interoperability of base station equipment from different manufacturers are tested and the test results are shared to expand the O-RAN ecosystem.
