ML-Based Handover Prediction Over a Real O-RAN Deployment Using RAN Intelligent Controller
O-RAN introduces intelligent and flexible network control in all parts of the network. The use of controllers with open interfaces allow us to gather real time network measurements and make intelligent/informed decision. The work in this paper focuses on developing a use-case for open and reconfigurable networks to investigate the possibility to ...
