Meet ARC-OTA, the most versatile platform available to all advanced wireless developers.
ARC-OTA is the first, - The FIRST network as an innovation sandbox with complete access to source code to onboard any and all experiments, with quick turnaround validation and benchmarking results. Built on principles of disaggregation, virtualization, software defined, adaptability, ORAN specifications and intelligence - a true advanced wireless developer launchpad.
A radio network built on principles above is non-trivial. Analogous to a puzzle board the need to qualify exact fit amid options is important to you as a developer. To ensure a delightful developer experience the product is built on strong foundations of reliable, stable, performant and scalable experimental radio networks. ARC-OTA roadmap will continue to deliver NVIDIA qualified tools and blueprints many of which will be emerging developer extensions to help accelerate the pace of innovation as a community.
Simply put as an ARC-OTA developer community lets – leverage, extend and innovate!
