O-RAN (or Open RAN) accelerate innovation and commercialization in RAN domain with
multi-vendor interoperable products and solutions that are easy to integrate in the
operator’s network and are verified for different deployment scenarios. O-RAN standards
are freely accessible to all third-party software developers, who can develop new types of
services and innovate on the RAN Intelligent Controller (RIC) by building xApps and rApps.
This enables telcos to make their networks a much more relevant resource for both
enterprise and consumer applications.
This training course of 5 days covers all the important topics that are required to have a
good and comprehensive learning of the O-RAN technology. The relevant standards of the O-
RAN alliance have been discussed to describe the O-RAN architecture and working, as well as
the O-RAN open interfaces.
