OSC SMO Meeting Series: Reminder from previous weeks:
- OSC SMO calls now move to its own time slot - Thursdays
- See OSC RSAC Calendar: https://wiki.o-ran-sc.org/display/RSAC/calendars
- See also OSC Meetings calendar: https://lists.o-ran-sc.org/g/main/calendar
- (Note this meeting to open to anyone, including non-ORAN members)
- We will maintain this slot for ONAP Alignment, and try flag issues/question to/from SMO meetings.
- See OSC SMO Project meeting notes
- Unfortunately Martin Skorupski cannot join next week
OSC Project roundup:
News from OSC TOC call this week
- https://wiki.o-ran-sc.org/display/TOC#ORANSCTechnicalOversightCommittee(TOC)
- Note Time change for TOC calls from May 5th onward
- +1 day & 1hr. Thursdays (Thursday 9AM EST)
- Timeslot is currently used by RSAC/SMO (RSAC/SMO will take the timeslot originally used for TOC)
- Keep watching calendar as updates are ongoing
- OTF readout likely will happen next week at RSAC call (Note changing time for RSAC call - moved to Wednesday - taking the old OSC TOC timeslot)
- VIAVI presented plans for RAN simulator/emulator & extensions for future use cases - particularly the mMIMO use case.
- Binary distribution will be provided, with some scripts & tests provided.
- (Emulator was previously used to generate data for HCL for ML training (xApp?) and also for E2 simulator https://gerrit.o-ran-sc.org/r/admin/repos/sim/e2-interface-data)
- New ns-3-based E2/RAN simulator contribution proposed by Northeastern University (with inputs from Mavenir & University of Padua)
- Will act as an E2 simulator for near-RT-RIC as an ns-3 5G simulations using OSC E2 Simulator
- License: GPL
- New repo required.
- Note Time change for TOC calls from May 5th onward
NONRTRIC (John Keeney)
- Finalizing ONAP J release for A1 Policy Management Service
- Working towards ONAP Kohn release requirements
- Repo moves almost complete.
- And, as per last week:
- Working on e2e PM data - making it available over pre-R1 DME (OSC NONRTRIC) Information Coordination Service)
- Working on PoC Service Exposure - with a view towards R1
- Examining 3GPP CAPIF spec
- Will update more as this matures - still very early - hopefully a demo in coming weeks (Kevin Timoney
)
- See discussion on ONAp use cases below.
SIM (Alex Stancu)
- Northeastern University (& Mavenir, Padua University) approved to contribute an E2 simulator plugin for NS3.
- Discussed at TOC this week (see above)
OAM (Martin Skorupski)
- Looking at Prometheus for O-Cloud metrics (With Grafana? for visualization)
- Possible to add to the base OSC SMO integration package?
- Examining O-Cloud specs & relevance for OAM. G release most likely.
O-DU (Hariom Gupta Vidhu Shekhar Pandey)
- VES event production & fault event validation (schema reference): Working now
- Will give a review soon
- Martin Skorupski Note Std-defined (FM?) messages are not yet visible in SDNR ODLux - will add soon
- Maybe add support for different Std-defined events
OSC Integration / INT (James Li )
- OTF workshop planned for RSAC call next Wed (see TOC vs RSAC time changes above)
- OTF installed in Bedminster Lab
RSAC/SMO (David Kinsey)
- No update
Copyright Update (N.K. Shankaranarayanan)
- Need to get feedback back to Magnus Buhrgard about plans to use 3GPP artifacts in ONAP
- Some discussion at O-RAN WG10 call about O-RAN→ 3GPP LS - but OSC out of scope there.
- Probably should aim for more liaison OSC → 3GPP?
ONAP Use Cases Update (N.K. Shankaranarayanan)
- Working on SON use case requirement for K release
- Moving from O1-based to A1-based
- rApp would likely need to be aware whether it is using A1 or O1 - Currently R1 plans for 2 separate logical functions(?)/service(?) for O1 vs A1 ... maybe later R1 might have a more abstract (e.g. Intent) interface ?
- Updating ONAP NetSIM for A1 etc. & plugable simualtor use-case logic
- Hope to rApp-ify & extend the Control-loops ("Automation Compositions") used - will work with ONAP Policy team Liam Fallon )
- Should have a Call soon between SON team, N.K. Shankaranarayanan, Liam Fallon & John Keeney
- Currently messages are DMaaP (Control Loop messages) ... Will that work?
- Will work for A1 PolicyManagementService (has a DMaaP NBI) - but this is not very R1-ey
- Still have a few weeks - but need to make progress
- Moving from O1-based to A1-based
Q/A
- None this week - have a good week!
