Cognitive RAN: a self-learning wireless RAN

摘要

There is a need to rethink the architecture of RAN from a statically configured RAN to a dynamically self-configuring RAN based on the availability of spectrum (licensed/unlicensed), adjacent channel interference, co-channel interference etc. This will ensure that with configurable wide-band RF and programmable SDR and a Big Data Cloud Compute Server we should be able to operate in any usage scenario like eMBB (enhanced Mobile Broad Band), urLLC (ultra-reliable low latency communication) or mMTC (massive machine type communication) specified in IMT 2020 Vision document.
