Reference Implementation Based on near-RT RIC
This section documents the details of the O-RAN App SDK which is primarily covering the implementation for near-RT RIC xApps.
information about how the O-RAN App SDK will evolve to cover other O-RAN apps can be found here.
This section describes how xApp interacts with the near-RT RIC platform through the O-RAN interfaces (i.e., O1, A1, E2)
The App SDK provides libraries for multiple programming languages that create layers of services and interfaces to enable interactions among xApps and between the near-RT RIC platform.
- Service provided by other xApps: The messaging library allows us to chain or compose xApp services. For more details, please refer to Service-based Architecture.
- App frameworks: App frameworks defines interfaces, provide skeleton codes, helper classes, and library wrappers to simplify the creation of xApps
