Yes, this is true. A relatively small company named Saguna has the answer to this challenge.
First of all what is the problem and why does the industry need a solution? Operators are working very diligently to make 4G a reality, but all the bandwidth in the world is not a complete solution. If the content the user is accessing requires a great deal of traversing infrastructure across the operator’s network to access what they are requesting from the Internet, the response time might still be unacceptable. Having an Open RAN that allows for content to be served from different locations in the radio network, more specifically in the case of Saguna, from the RAN closest to the end user.
By delivering content and applications from a network location closest to the end user, the quality of this experience is greatly improved, along with improving radio utilization and a reduction in traffic on the transport network. This young company has some interesting solutions to offer.
