Topic:

Open 5G Platform

Facebook has recently announced its OpenCellular platform for promoting open-source wireless access technology developments and broader applications. In this talk, we will give an introduction of an open 5G platform, which applies SDN and NFV techniques to realize the key functions of a telecom operator according to the 3GPP standard on general CPU/GPU computing platform. It is very adaptive and flexible for supporting a variety of internet of things (IoT) applications in vertical industries. New technical challenges and potential applications of this open platform in delay-sensitive control areas will be fully discussed.
