• Why are RAN timing requirements becoming stricter?

• xHaul evolution and 5G RAN

• Absolute vs. relative time error (clustering)

As an early industry virtualization evangelist, RAD established and maintained a dialog with carriers and service providers on the subject of vCPE design and functionalities at the customer edge.

In this presentation, RAD’s CTO, Dr. Yaakov Stein compares and contrasts the management of physical equipment with the orchestration of virtualized entities. Architecture, implementation, and operational aspects are discussed, zooming in on recent market experience with vCPE solutions.

Learn about new developments in LTE/LTE-Advanced and small cell backhaul allowing operators to bring affordable and highly accurate timing synchronization right to the base station, using a IEEE 1588 Grandmaster on an SFP with a built-in GNSS receiver that simply plugs into existing network devices.

Business CPE is considered by many to be the most attractive early use case for virtualization. In this Total Telecom webinar, RAD and Amdocs present a joint end-to-end vCPE solution for business services, including the business case for virtualization of customer premises equipment.

The European Advanced Networking Test Center and Upperside Conferences invited interested vendors to our public multi-vendor interoperability test and showcase at the MPLS + SDN + NFV World Congress 2017.

Core topics for the current edition were:

NFV and SDN transformation is driving an unprecedented level of change. As service providers start to implement these new virtual network technologies, they face a number of challenges in rolling out and operating hybrid networks. This paper reviews best practices to address these challenges via a pre-integrated, end-to-end, automated and programmable solution.

Effective support of advanced applications and services in mobile networks today requires highly accurate distribution of time reference to all base stations, using a Global Navigation Satellite System, or GNSS (e.g., GPS). This paper addresses the increasingly threatening risk of GNSS jamming and reviews best practices for anti-jam protection.

This paper reviews the various methodologies currently available for ensuring Time Of Day (TOD) synchronization in cellular networks. It also introduces RAD’s revolutionary Distributed GMTM scheme, designed to deliver superb TOD accuracy at a lower cost in LTE and small cell networks, by bringing Grandmaster functionality closer to the base station in a small form factor device.
