Keysight U5040BSCB Open RAN Studio for O-RU Testing and Validation
Highlights
- Support for split option 7.2x (O-RU categories A & B), compliant stimulus generation and response analysis, as well as measurement of O-RAN traffic over 10 Gbps / 25 Gbps /50 Gbps (fronthaul) Ethernet interfaces
- Fully automated generation of Ethernet based O-RAN Control, User, Management and Synchronization-plane messages with eCPRI transport encapsulation types compliant with ORAN-WG4.CUS.0-v13.00 and O-RAN.WG4.MP.0-R003-v13.00
- Out of the box integration with Keysight’s signal generation as well as VSA software for 5G NR and LTE standards
- Quick configuration and generation of 5G NR and LTE single or multi-carrier compliant FDD and TDD waveforms
- Real-time FrameID generation and CRC Calculation
- Analysis of both FR1 and FR2 radio downlink (DL) and uplink (UL) paths
- Configuration of O-RAN Sections types and Section Extensions
- Support for Beamforming
- Support for M-plane configuration
- Capture and accurate timestamping of O-RAN responses
- Visualization and full decoding of O-RAN traces with flow-based filtering
Next generation O-RAN equipment design, validation and production teams face new and diverse test challenges. Open fronthaul architectures and gNB disaggregation are driving the need for unit testing in isolation, flexible peer emulation, and comprehensive analysis of new O-RAN devices including multi-domain combinations of LTE and 5G Signal test scenarios with standardbased O-RAN CUS protocol generation and measurement.
Keysight 5G Open RAN Studio tests O-RAN Radio Units (O-RU) and chipsets with O-RAN (ORAN-WG4.CUS.0-v02.00) split option 7.2x compliant CU-plane stimulus generation and analysis. Open RAN Studio emulates a Distributed Unit (O-DU), enabling users to generate test vectors against a DUT, captures O-RAN uplink communications, and perform the measurements necessary to validate an O-RU’s functional operation and performance.
