Ruijie Networks Completes SA-Based 5G Small Cell Test in China Mobile Laboratory

Ruijie Networks has always adhered to the concept of independent innovation and has maintained a close cooperative relationship with China Mobile for a long time. Recently, Ruijie Networks completed the end-to-end verification of the core network, base stations and terminals in China Mobile's laboratory, becoming the first small base station manufacturer to complete the SA networking mode test based on the open platform architecture.

The China Mobile lab test mainly tested wireless functions, RF indicators and performance. In the 2.6GHz frequency band, the VIAVI TM500 was used to complete the registration access, ping packet and service flow verification in SA mode. At the same time, the RF indicator test met the relevant requirements of the 3GPP TS 38.104 R15 specification.

Ruijie Networks' extended pico base station is mainly aimed at indoor scenarios and aims to solve the 5G capacity problem. It complies with the O-RAN architecture requirements and is an open platform architecture. It consists of three parts: pico base station host (BBU)/expansion unit (pHUB)/remote unit (pRRU). It adopts a general X86 + FPGA accelerated architecture and implements a full software 5GNR protocol stack, including: L1/L2/L3, which can flexibly evolve to adapt to later uRLLC and other slices and customized protocol stack functions; at the same time, through virtualization technology, it fully utilizes the functions of the server platform and can flexibly load edge computing (MEC) APPs, such as positioning, CDN caching, etc., to meet vertical applications; in addition, the 5G SA networking mode tested by China Mobile's laboratory is the ultimate technical evolution direction of 5G, which can give full play to the end-to-end performance advantages of 5G.

Ruijie Networks focuses on scenario-based innovation and is committed to providing cost-effective products for various scenarios, providing operators with refined investment solutions for large network coverage and vertical industry applications. In this China Mobile laboratory test, Ruijie Networks and the Hong Kong Applied Science Research Institute simultaneously launched small local core network equipment and completed laboratory testing. The success of this laboratory test represents an end-to-end lightweight deployment solution for vertical industry applications.
