Open RAN enables communications service providers to create a dynamic, programmable network platform from a diverse pool of suppliers, minimizing vendor lock-in and improving total cost of ownership (TCO). Central to this are the RAN Intelligent Controllers (RICs) – both Non-RT and Near-RT.
Network simulation, particularly the integration of a virtualized RAN with VIAVI RIC Test in Amdocs’ lab, enables test teams to rapidly generate realistic scenarios and datasets. This facilitates the automated deployment and thorough testing of our x/rApps against real-world scenarios before they go live, significantly speeding up RAN automation development and testing and yielding considerable time and effort savings.
Amdocs in collaboration with VIAVI Solutions, has incorporated network simulation into the CI/CD automation pipelines for Open RAN app development, automating the entire process from coding and unit testing to RIC deployment and testing across various network scenarios.
