Popis: In this demo, we exhibit the negotiation based on the TM Forum framework (Customer Facing Service and Resource Facing Service) and the deployment of a fully virtualized end-to-end mobile network (including a RAN desegregated into Remote Unit, Distributed Unit and Centralized Unit) by using ONAP, an open-source network automation platform. The various components of mobile network are containerized and deployed by ONAP on top of Kubernetes. The demo is the first illustration of an end-to-end mobile network, which is fully virtualized up to the remote unit, whose architecture is compatible with the Open-RAN framework, and which implements a PHY layer on the basis of 3GPP 7.3 functional split in Open Air Interface code.
