OCUDU RAN: Standards-Based Inter-gNB Handover with O-RAN O1 Management
Seamless inter-gNB handover in a real-world Open RAN deployment with OCUDU RAN, SD-Core, LiteON radio units, and commercial 5G UEs. Demonstrates both operator-initiated (gNB-triggered) and UE-initiated (3GPP A3 measurement-based) handovers with uninterrupted mobility across cells, and introduces O-RAN O1 support for handover monitoring and control, standardized mobility KPIs, and a foundation for AI-powered mobility xApps and rApps.
