BubbleRAN demonstration at OpenAirInterface Workshop 2024 in Biot in France.
Demonstration about Automated Application-Driven RAN Slicing (Auto-RAN) with OAI is enhancing the adaptability of the RAN to meet diverse Quality of Service (QoS) requirements to meet spatio-temporal application traffic variability in next-generation mobile networks.
In this demonstration, we deploy an end-to-end 5G O-RAN network with the following components
✅ OpenAireInterface gNodeB and core network with COTS UEs
✅ BubbleRAN Near-Real-Time RAN Intelligent Controller and Auto-RAN xApp
We implemented advanced automated control logic within an xApp, which continuously monitors current traffic patterns of each User Equipment (UE) and assesses their application-specific requirements, such as latency and bandwidth. Based on this real-time analysis, the xApp automatically enforces optimal RAN slicing policies, adjusting radio resource allocation and managing traffic within the RAN on-the-fly to ensure that each UE receives tailored QoS.
