Session 10: Open RAN Protocol Stack | Disaggregation, RLC Protocol, Transmission Modes, MAC Layer
- 29 days ago
Welcome to Session 10 of our Open RAN series! This session delves into the protocol stack of Open RAN, illustrating how protocol layers are disaggregated in components such as DU and CU. We'll simplify the RLC protocol using a functional block diagram, providing clarity on its operation. Furthermore, we'll explore transmission modes in RLC (TM, UM, and AM), elucidating their significance in meeting diverse requirements. Finally, we'll unravel the MAC layer's functionality, offering a comprehensive understanding of the protocol stack in Open RAN. Join us for this enlightening session!
1. Disaggregation of Protocol Layers:
Description: Explore how protocol layers are separated in Open RAN components like DU and CU, enhancing flexibility and scalability. Understand how this disaggregation allows for efficient resource utilization and enables operators to customize their network architecture based on specific needs and requirements.
2. RLC Protocol:
Description: Delve into the RLC (Radio Link Control) protocol, which plays a crucial role in the reliable transmission of data over the radio interface. Through a functional block diagram, we'll simplify the complexities of the RLC protocol, highlighting its key functions such as segmentation and reassembly of data packets, error correction, and flow control.
3. Transmission Modes in RLC:
Description: Dive deep into the various transmission modes (TM, UM, and AM) in RLC and understand why each mode is essential for different requirements. Transmission modes dictate how data is transferred between the transmitter and receiver, with each mode offering a different balance between reliability and efficiency based on the application's needs.
4. MAC Layer Functionality:
Description: Gain insight into the MAC (Medium Access Control) layer's functionality, which is responsible for managing access to the wireless medium. Learn how the MAC layer coordinates the transmission of data between multiple users, ensuring efficient use of the available bandwidth and minimizing collisions. Understand the role of the MAC layer in scheduling transmissions, handling acknowledgments, and managing contention for the shared medium.
