Essentials of Cloud RAN2Over recent years we have seen the evolution of the radio access network from large, bulky & power-hungry platforms to much more space-friendly form factors. This has been combined with the separation of the baseband functions (BBU) and the radio functions (RRU) allowing for flexibility and supported by fibre interconnect, known as “fronthaul”.
This program provides an explanation of the evolution of the radio access network to the Cloud RAN (C-RAN) architecture, describing why this is needed to support 4G/LTE-A and 5G systems, the cloud and virtualization aspects plus the development of standardized fronthaul networking.
