Description (French)
Le projet proposé par Acentury vise à développer un système d’automatisation des réseaux sans fil 5G, comprenant l’automatisation des tests de bout en bout, l’analyse des protocoles basée sur l’apprentissage automatique, l’automatisation du déploiement du het-net 5G, la gestion des éléments de réseau O-RAN / vRAN, l’automatisation de la planification 5G, l’orchestration des services RAN pour les essais en laboratoire et le déploiement sur le terrain. Ces fonctionnalités amélioreront nos solutions LAMTA et OMERA afin qu’elles puissent accélérer davantage les essais en laboratoire RF et les activités de déploiement en production pour leurs clients MNO et fournisseurs NE 5G.
