    Near-Real-time RAN Intelligent Controller Platform (E2 Interface) (RICPLT)

    Original primary goals based on contributions from Nokia, Samsung, HCL, Capgemini, Parallel Wireless, Alexandre Huff (UTFPR) and Abhijit G:

    • We will deprecate the RMR-based E2 subscription interface and H-release xApps need to use the REST based interface already supported by the the C++, go, and python xApp frameworks (RIC-375). The subscription manager should handle subscriptions for failing xApps (RIC-929) and provide a callback on subscription delete success/failure (RIC-928). We plan to implement the RIC subscription delete required procedure (RIC-851)
    • Update to newer golang version of all components (RIC-881)
    • We will develop a CRD, i.e., a K8S operator on top of the DMS REST API to simplify xApp deployment (RIC-715). Also the DMS Rest interface gets the missing delete API (RIC-954). RIC-717 allows to deploy multiple cooperating xApps together.
    • On E2 side we will implement the E2 Reset procedure from RAN to RIC (RIC-949) and the RIC Subscription Delete procedure (RIC-851). We also implement robustness improvements (RIC-932 for reconnect cases) and troubleshooting improvements (RIC-813, RIC-814).
    • There's work planned to deploy the kserve-based model provisioning from the AI/ML project into the RIC platform (RIC-955)
    • The xapp frameworks for Golang (RIC-930), C++ and Rust (RIC-951) will get some enhancements that are already implemented in the other languages, incl. support for xApp registration in the xapp-framework-cpp (RIC-705).
    • E2T (RIC-813) and E2Mgr (RIC-814) support dynamic changing of log levels for better troubleshooting
    • RIC-953 A1 testing improvements and bug fixes
    • Added to plan during H:
      • Support for policy status notifications in A1 (RIC-973 (incl. RIC-975))
      • Faster timeout in SCTP heartbeats (E2) (RIC-976)
      • IPv6 support in RMR (RIC-985)


    Achieved H release highlights = high-level release notes (2023-06-20) below (note that the release image list is here: link)

    • E2 reset (from E2 node to RIC), E2 subscription delete required, A1 policy status notifications
    • Preparation of feature for I release, e.g., include xApps in subscription delete required decision

    For the H release of the near-RT RIC we do only limited integration testing: only the use cases: deploy RIC, deploy xApp, make E2 connection, get list of A1 policies has been tested.

    Filled in end-of-release checklist: link

    PTL: Thoralf Czichy

    Status 2023-06-20: From the 23 epics planned (link) we implemented 11 (link). 12 items have been moved out of the H release, e.g, because of implementation delays (link). Incomplete items: 0 (link). Additionally we fixed 10 bugs and small implementation tasks (link)

    H release source code, container images and deployment instructions

    The list of container images for the  release (link). A demo video for the H release deployment is available at the top of the demo page and shows

    • how to deploy the near-RT RIC platform,
    • compile connect the E2 (e2 node) simulator from the OSC simulator project and
    • compile the hw-go xapp from the xapp project and use the dms_cli to deploy it and check the E2 subscriptions the xApp created.

    Code coverage: Code coverage reports (current coverage and list of components that need to set up Jenkins job for auto-generation of the reports as part of CI)


    Operation and Maintenance (OAM)

    Primary Goals:

    • Provide complete implementation for OAM functions (FCAPS).

    H release Feature Scope: 

      • Updates according to O-RAN Operations and Maintenance Interface Specification 8.0 (O-RAN.WG10.O1-Interface.0-v08.00)    October 2022
      • Hardening the solution by introducing a "SMO-gateway".
      • Add a FlowManagement Component.

    Please see also project wiki for further details: H-Release

    PTL: Martin Skorupski

    H release highlights/accomplishments (2023-06-22):

    • update of OAM-Controller to ODL version Sulfur
    • support of SMO team and the aligmened of requiremnets acorss several open-source projects. 
    • Updates according to O-RAN Operations and Maintenance Interface Specification 8.0 (O-RAN.WG10.O1-Interface.0-v08.00)    October 2022
    • Hardening the solution by introducing a "SMO-gateway"
      • all components exposing http northbound are reachable by FQDN (https port 443)
      • the OAM-Controller components interfacing with the network can be reached also by FQDN (VES-http: 443, SSH-Callhome: 4334, TSL-Callhome 4335)
    • Add a FlowManagement Component
      • which includes examples for ONAP-VES, StndDefined-VES with 3GPP-Body and StndDefined-VES with WG4-OFHM-body

    O-DU Low

    Primary Goals:

    Implementation of the O-DU Low Physical Layer functions for a 5G Open Access Radio Network allowing the flexibility of a software implementation coupled with the ability of incorporating hardware accelerators on a selective basis and meets the O-RAN architecture goals of scalability, mix and match multi-vendor modules that are interoperable and that can be upgraded as the standards evolve by software updates.

    The O-DU Low physical layer functions follow the 3GPP TS 38 series recommendations for 5G and the 3GPP TS 36 series recommendations for LTE with the 3GPP 7.2 functional split between O-DU Low and O-RU. In 3GPP terms the O-DU Low is referred to HIGH-PHY in the functional split for 5G.

    Implementation of the Open Front Haul interface to the O-RU per O-RAN WG4 CUS specifications.

    Integration of this component with multi-vendor implementations of O-DU High and O-RU modules for end to end interoperability and compatibility verification.

    H release Feature Scope: 

    The O-DU Low H release is the same as the F Release and G Release that added support for Massive MIMO, URLLC and it is based on the commercial FlexRan 21.11 release.  

    The O-DU Low H, G and F Release code is an Intel contribution in collaboration with Tieto Poland for the source code releases in the O-RAN gerrit and for the binary blobs contributed via GitHub.

    For the documentation preparation of the H, F and G release Intel worked with collaboration from Fransiscus Bimo and Professor Ray-Guang Cheng from National Taiwan University of Science and Technology (NTUST).  

    The H, G and F release are being used for end to end testing and it is based on the E maintenance release that was used for the 2021 November US O-RAN Plugfest and tested in conjuction with 2 stack partners and 2 different Test equipment vendors. The Front Haul Interface was also tested for compliance using Keysight's Front Haul Test equipment.

    Container images and deployment instructions are to be provided later
