ABI Insight: Fronthaul Leverages Virtualization For 5G-ready V-RAN
June 21, 2017
Next-generation fronthaul is a core foundation of emerging V-RAN networks in the sense that it enables the execution of centralized access protocol functions and allows advanced dynamic capacity routing. Next-generation fronthaul is access protocol agnostic, software configurable, and supports MIMO and massive MIMO and is key to lowering equipment space and energy requirements for reduced CAPEX and OPEX.
