The telecom industry is currently seeing good momentum for Open RAN adoption and deployment. Recently, RCR Wireless News caught up with Ganesh Shenbagaraman, Head of Standards and Ecosystems at Radisys, to talk about upcoming Open RAN initiatives and what he believes will be the future momentum of 5G and 6G.
“We are seeing some forward momentum and real-life examples of progress in Open RAN,” he explained during an interview at Mobile World Congress in Barcelona. “We have the O-RAN Alliance, [and] there are multiple vendor consortiums, where we see interoperability coming into play. A network like DISH, which is multi-vendor and operational today, is an excellent live example of how things can be made to work in Open RAN.”
