Viavi is collaborating with technology supplier Picocom to provide a complete test solution for validation of Open RAN base station components, including: chips, physical layers and protocol stack software for small cell 5G networks compliant with O-RAN standards.
As an Open RAN baseband semiconductor and software specialist, Picocom is actively involved with the O-RAN Alliance and the Small Cell Forum (SCF) to advance Open RAN standards for intelligent, manageable and controllable small cell base stations, meeting the differentiated needs of various markets. The Viavi TM500 network tester is capable of measuring the complete performance of the 5G network over multiple interfaces, including open fronthaul and RF through to the packet core.
Picocom selected the TM500 for use in the lab to create a precise test environment, including comprehensive feature interactions, simulated RF and accurate replications of real-world user behaviour profiles, to ensure performance of small cell base stations in O-RAN networks.
