Open RAN programmability for non-real-time operations (SMO, Non-RT RIC, A1) and real-time operations (Near-RT RIC, E2) are discussed alongside essentials of RAN control, network data collection, notifications of events, policy control, and network and service management. Examples of implementation by leading vendors and open-source communities are provided throughout to show the potential of the Open RAN ecosystem and technology. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWritten by an industry insider and a key contributor to the development of the technology, this book includes: \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003eActivities and structure of the O-RAN Alliance, including work groups, committees, and the O-RAN Software Community (OSC)\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eEvolution of the Open RAN ecosystem, covering O-RAN specifications releases and compliant products, ongoing and planned developments, as well as ongoing and planned trials and commercial deployments\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eSMO and Non-RT RIC functional procedures, A1 policy-based interface, rApps\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eNear-RT RIC functional procedures, covering subscription,  notifications, control, policy, and query procedures;  E2 services, covering REPORT, INSERT, CONTROL, and POLICY services; Near-RT RIC as an xApps hosting platform\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cli\u003eTraffic steering, QoS optimization, NSSI resource optimization, and massive MIMO optimization, covering outer and inner control loops, network data collection, and optimization actions\u003c\/li\u003e \u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003eWith a combined overview of key technology aspects and practical examples, \u003ci\u003eOpen RAN\u003c\/i\u003e is a practical and highly useful reference for researchers, engineers, and marketing experts employed by mobile carriers, equipment vendors, government bodies, and universities, as well as professionals in associated communications fields and PhD electrical engineering students.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\u003cdiv\u003e  \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eVladimir Yanover, PhD,\u003c\/b\u003e 5G and Open RAN expert, has significant experience in the development of mobile network technology, representing leading companies in O-RAN Alliance and 3GPP, and the development of industry White Papers.
