Rejection and breakups are hard enough, but being ghosted can be traumatic. It can leave you with unanswered questions that make it hard to move on. Although ghosting also occurs in friendships, it's usually associated with dating. More devastating,

Centralized RAN (C-RAN) WHAT IS IT? AND WHY SHOULD YOU CARE? Paul Kennard, CTO June 13, 2013
THE DATA STORM LOW ARPU
NETWORK COSTS
NEW DEVICES
NEW CONSUMERS
low or stable average revenue per user
explosion of smart phones, tablets and other mobile devices
increased network CAPEX and OPEX
5 billion consumers will have access to internet
AVIAT NETWORKS
DENSER NETWORKS
the only way to deal with the data storm is to have denser wireless networks with ever increasing spectral efficiency
This has several problems: How
to meet the required coverage and capacity?
How
to deal with interference?
How
to manage increased complexity:
To
increase spectral efficiency?
To
manage customer’s data?
To
deal with higher CAPEX and OPEX?
AVIAT NETWORKS
STRATEGIES FOR DENSER NETWORKS BACKHAUL
RAN DECENTRALIZATION (HetNet) TRADITIONAL MACRO CELLS SMALL CELLS, SON
FRONTHAUL
RAN CENTRALIZATION (C-RAN) DISTRIBUTED ANTENNAS (DAS) REMOTE RADIO HEADS (RRH)

ADVANTAGES OF C-RAN
Resource pooling
Greener infrastructure (re-use)
Base station virtualization
Simplified management and operation
Coordination for interference mitigation (ICIC)
Multi technology support
No GPS in each remote site
AVIAT NETWORKS
MAIN C-RAN CHALLENGE IS FRONTHAUL
Difficult to reach RRU locations (mostly urban)
Non traditional deployments (street furniture, non-tower)
CPRI interface creates new challenges (capacity, latency, management, etc) PLUS FIBER IS NOT EVERYWHERE, AND NOT FOR FREE… SO WIRELESS SOLUTIONS FOR FRONTHAUL WILL BE NEEDED
AVIAT NETWORKS
BUT CAPACITY AND LATENCY REQUIREMENTS PUSH THE BOUNDARIES OF WIRELESS TECHNOLOGIES
RRH CPRI
“Latency”
RRH CPRI
<100us
BBU
TRANSMISSION MEDIUM (FIBER / MICROWAVE)
CPRI
IP BACKHAUL
WCDMA
COMPRESSED CPRI CAPACITY REQUIREMENTS

SCENARIO
5 MHz
10 MHz
20 MHz
3 Sectors, 4x4 MIMO, 1 Carrier

2.9 Gbps
5.9 Gbps
1 Sectors, 2x2 MIMO, 1 Carrier

461 Mbps
983 Mbps
AVIAT NETWORKS
WHICH MEANS NEW INNOVATIONS (IN WIRELESS TRANSPORT) WILL BE REQUIRED smaller
lower latency
higher capacity
faster
low power
cheaper AVIAT NETWORKS
C-RAN offers many benefits for operators however Fronthaul challenges need to be addressed to make it a reality
