Open and Virtualized RAN Solutions

Saankhya Labs is creating an Open, Cognitive and Scalable 5G RAN solution portfolio which includes Multi Band Remote Radio Units (RU) with advanced analytics capabilities and RAN Intelligent Analytics platform. The Saankhya 5G RAN portfolio provides a differentiated solution to the operator to optimize spectrum use and reduce Total Cost of Ownership.

Open DU

This is a ground up design for vRAN hardware platform based on Saankhya Labs’ SDR architecture. This will give the global operators access to a open and dynamic hardware platform that saves on cap-ex and op-ex. This platform is the result of deep expertise of the Saankhya team in designing DSP based RAN hardware.

5G RU

This is an ORAN based 5G NR Infrastructure device. The solution includes support for various 3gpp bands specially the low and mid bands like Band 71, 29 and 40. It can be customized for other bands as well. The solution will incorporate a unique front haul compression technique to reduce op-ex for operators

RIC

This is a software product under development for network automation and capacity optimization. The product is in line with the ORAN specification of the Radio Interface Controller. It will be implemented as a VNF and allows easy integration.

Discussion with Saankhya Labs on Development of Truly Open Virtualized RAN

ALLIANCES AND MEMBERSHIPS

Radio access network (RAN) deployments for 4G and earlier had relied on proprietary aggregated RF and Baseband equipment mainly from one dominant vendor and very few other vendors. Because of closed proprietary designs, it was very difficult to deploy multi vendor RAN equipment due to interoperability challenges.

Service providers worldwide are driving adoption of an open RAN for 5G, and in some cases for 4G as well. The O-RAN Alliance has defined a RAN architecture with Open, virtualized, AI enabled RAN architecture, that breaks down what was once a single-vendor, hardware centric RAN into several sections.

From Agri to Auto; 5 Key Sectors to See Major Transformation With 5G

International Covid Responses and modern wireless RAN design

Parag Naik
Founder & CEO
As the world battles the Covid-19 pandemic, the governments across the world have varied their responses to the crisis, based on diverse local factors. There is no one size fits all. Similar is the case of wireless RAN design which has to account for local factors and can’t be determined by a single global standard.

India to take the lead in telecom and radio in the next decade

Kiran Deshpande
Advisor, Saankhya Labs
Real-time broadcast updates to mobile devices, direct-to-mobile television broadcast and much more beckon the next generation communication revolution. With ever increasing digital traffic, video offload is the next progression to optimize spectrum usage. The solution lies in deploying smarter pipes, with a fine grain mixing of mobile spectrum and broadcast spectrum. India has both the technology as well as the expertise to lead the next wave of telecom revolution.
