Learn about the developer journey of Northeastern University and Michele Polese, an early ARC-OTA developer who went from an installed, configured, and operationalized 8 base station network to enabling multiple research streams, to then on-boarding and integrating a key network element, the RIC (RAN Intelligent Controller), as an ARC-OTA extension and an opportunity to on-board ML-based applications for the developer community. Join ARC-OTA developer and assistant professor Dr. Michele Polese from Northeastern University and NVIDIA Product Manager Anupa Kelkar as they share insights that showcase the potential of the platform capabilities, applications, and developer-extensions to jumpstart innovations in advancing wireless communications. |

Description |
|---|---|
X5G is the first 8-node network deployment of the NVIDIA Aerial RAN CoLab Over-The-Air (ARC-OTA), with the Aerial SDK for the PHY layer, accelerated on Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), and through its integration with higher layers from the OpenAirInterface (OAI) open-source project through the Small Cell Forum Functional Application Platform Interface (FAPI). |
|
At Fraunhaufer, we have successfully integrated an Open RAN network based on NVIDIA ARC-OTA. At Y2024 Hannover Messe 6G-RIC booth in Germany our first demonstration showcased a virtual lab tour through a remote controlled robot UE connected over our deployment of the NVIDIA Aerial RAN CoLab Over-The-Air (ARC-OTA), with the Aerial SDK for the High PHY layer, accelerated on Graphics Processing Unit (GPU), and through its integration with higher layers from the OpenAirInterface (OAI). |
|
In this over-the-air demonstration, a containerized AI video classification process runs in the same NVIDIA GPU that accelerates the 5G PHY protocol. Allbesmart Lda operates a reference implementation of the NVIDIA ARC platform, collaborating closely with the OAI and NVIDIA team to support early developers of the NVIDIA ARC platform for advanced 5G/6G research and experimentation. |
