Building Secure and Energy‑Efficient 5G Networks with Software Defined Radios.
The rapid evolution of 5G networks is driving new requirements for performance, security, and energy efficiency — especially at the radio unit (RU). At the same time, the shift toward Open RAN architectures is transforming how networks are built, deployed, and scaled, enabling greater flexibility, vendor diversity, and innovation.
In this webinar, we explore how software-defined radio (SDR) technologies and highly integrated radio‑on‑a‑chip solutions are enabling the next generation of secure and energy‑efficient 5G infrastructure. We will examine key architectural trade‑offs in the RAN, including the adoption of O‑RAN split 7.2 and the move toward more processing at the radio edge, reducing fronthaul bandwidth while improving system efficiency.
We will also highlight how the integration of radio, digital front‑end, and low PHY into a single SoC eliminates the need for FPGAs, significantly reducing power consumption, system complexity, and total cost.
Join us to understand how these innovations enable smaller, lighter, and more secure 5G radios — while delivering meaningful energy savings and accelerating Open RAN deployments at scale.
Attendees will:
- Understand key RAN architecture choices (e.g., O‑RAN split 7.2) and their impact on bandwidth, power, and system design
- Learn how SDR‑based integrated RU SoCs reduce power, cost, and complexity by eliminating FPGAs
- Explore techniques to build secure and energy‑efficient 5G radios, including edge processing and optimized fronthaul
- See how Open RAN architectures enable scalable, flexible, and future‑ready 5G deployments
