StarHub, SUTD partner for Open Radio Access Network implementation

The ORAN technology will streamline the development of RAN-related applications.

StarHub has signed a research collaboration agreement with the Singapore University of Technology (SUTD) to lead the Open Radio Access Network (ORAN) implementation. 

The collaboration, announced at the Mobile World Congress 2024, involves joint trials and demonstrations within the Future Communications Connectivity Lab (FCCLab).

The FCCLab, supported by the Infocomm Media Development Authority and National Research Foundation Singapore, focuses on future-proofing Singapore’s communication capabilities. 

“Singapore is set to enhance its technological infrastructure, and through this collaboration, we strive to enable more use cases for ORAN, allowing for new heights in network agility, scalability and innovation,” said Ayush Sharma, chief technology officer of StarHub.

StarHub will provide engineers, specialists, and relevant network equipment for ORAN implementation and trials.

The ORAN technology will streamline the development of RAN-related applications, including AI and ML-based radio optimization and power-saving applications. 

StarHub and SUTD will implement a 5G packet gateway at SUTD premises, bringing the core network closer to end-users.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

Reaching the people who run Asia's businesses is harder than it used to be.

Inboxes are crowded. Attention is short. The executives you most want to reach — the founders, CFOs, and operators who actually move budgets — are the hardest to find through the usual channels. If you're building a company, a category, or a reputation, you already know this.

We've spent twenty years building the room they read. Singapore Business Review is where senior decision makers in Singapore and across Southeast Asia come for business coverage they can't get elsewhere — in print, online, and in person at the summits and roundtables we host across seven markets.

If you have something these readers should know about — a point of view worth publishing, a product worth their attention, an event worth their time — we'd like to hear what you're trying to do.
