- The originality of this work is a new model for reliable low-latency communication between distributed radio-head and central baseband of radio access network (RAN). Through extensive experimentations, we demonstrate, for the first time, how cloud RAN can be used for 5G critical services, including ultra-reliable low-latency communication. This is achieved by a novel functionality split and the use of channel encoding on fronthaul. The underlying experimental study is also the first to demonstrate RAN function split over Ethernet (https://kclpure.kcl.ac.uk/portal/en/publications/on-the-feasibility-of-mac-and-phy-split-in-cloud-ran(317df11c-94b8-4ef3-b701-7ee4338b2f8e).html). This work contributed to the baseline of the Primo-5G (https://kclpure.kcl.ac.uk/portal/en/projects/virtual-presence-in-moving-objects-through-5g(e5844e83-bdf4-42e6-86c7-7f6902bea4c5).html) and enabled King’s to contribute to the NGMN and ORAN alliance.
