Calnex 以 NEO‑ORAN‑MERGE 功能强化 O‑RAN 测试能力

在 2024 年春季 O‑RAN Plugfest 活动期间，Calnex 与 VVDN、ETRI 以及我们在韩国的分销商 Sonata 合作，在 LGU+ 的 5G 创新实验室成功完成了 O‑RU S‑Plane 一致性测试。此次测试由我们全新的软件功能 NEO‑ORAN‑MERGE 提供支持，该功能可将 O‑RAN 的 M‑Plane、C‑Plane 和 U‑Plane 数据与由 Calnex Paragon‑neo 生成的 S‑Plane 数据无缝合并。

这一先进功能使 O‑RAN O‑RU S‑Plane 一致性测试的设置与执行变得更加简单。通过将 Paragon‑neo 放置在 O‑DU 与 O‑RU 之间，用户可以引入 PTP 和 SyncE 的噪声模式，以模拟真实的网络流量场景。

Paragon‑neo 的 S‑Plane 仿真器能够同时生成 PTP 和 SyncE 的时间与频率误差，从而提供更贴近真实网络的测试环境。该配置可在接近实际网络条件下对预期性能进行全面验证，增强对 O‑RAN 部署的信心。

此外，需要特别指出的是，这些 O‑RAN 推荐的噪声模式是 Calnex Solutions 独有 的。我们严格遵循行业标准，确保进入 O‑RU 的噪声水平符合 G.8273.2 附录 IX、G.8262 和 G.8262.1 中的规范要求（见下方表 9）。无论是 LLS‑C2、LLS‑C3 还是 LLS‑C1 配置，我们的 Paragon‑neo 解决方案都能提供精确且可靠的测试结果。

凭借 NEO‑ORAN‑MERGE 功能以及我们先进的噪声模式能力，Calnex 正在推动 O‑RAN 测试的演进，并为行业树立新的卓越标准。Calnex 始终站在 O‑RAN 测试创新的前沿，为客户提供最先进的解决方案，加速部署进程并确保最佳网络性能。

During the Spring O-RAN Plugfest 2024, Calnex collaborated with VVDN, ETRI, and our distributor Sonata in Korea to successfully conduct the O-RU S-plane conformance test at LGU+’s 5G innovation lab. The test was facilitated by our new software feature, NEO-ORAN-MERGE, which allows for the seamless merging of O-RAN M-, C-, and U-Plane data with S-Plane data generated by the Calnex Paragon-neo.

This cutting-edge feature allowed easy setup and execution of O-RAN O-RU S-plane conformance tests. By placing the Paragon-neo between an O-DU and O-RU, users can introduce noise patterns of PTP and SyncE to replicate real-world traffic scenarios.

Paragon-neo’s S-Plane emulator can generate time and frequency errors of PTP and SyncE simultaneously, providing a more realistic testing environment. This setup allows for thorough validation of expected performance in real network conditions, enhancing confidence in O-RAN deployments.

Furthermore, it’s important to note that these O-RAN recommended noise patterns are exclusive to Calnex Solutions. We adhere to industry standards, ensuring that noise levels at the input of the O-RU align with specifications outlined in G.8273.2 Appendix IX, G.8262, and G.8262.1 (see table 9 below). Whether it’s LLS-C2, LLS-C3, or LLS C1 configurations, our Paragon-neo solution delivers precise and reliable testing results.

With NEO-ORAN-MERGE feature and our advanced noise pattern capabilities, Calnex is driving the evolution of O-RAN testing and setting new standards for excellence in the industry. Calnex remains at the forefront of O-RAN testing innovation, empowering customers with state-of-the-art solutions to accelerate their deployment timelines and ensure optimal network performance.
