Accelleran was at Mobile World Congress 2022 to introduce additional functionality to its Open RAN 5G private network solutionto allow customers to install high performance 5G infrastructure with spectrum automatically allocated through a CBRS spectrum access system. Consisting of the near-real-time RAN intelligent controller (RIC), centralized unit (CU), distributed (DU) and radio unit (RU), plus the service management and orchestration (SMO) software, all the key elements have been pre-selected, pre-integrated and optimized. This means that 5G private network implementations can be completed much quicker and with less engineering costs involved, while still providing customers with access to the RAN intelligence and automation functionality provided by the dRAXTM RIC platform. The additional CBRS feature now incorporated will enable automated micro-licensing of spectrum issued by the CBRS SAS server for the US 5G private networks market.
