• B5G and 6G Base station computing and processing capabilities enabling the most demanding high performance, real time Radio Access Network (RAN) functions such as dynamic spectrum sharing in the context of disaggregated RAN architectures. It includes acceleration capabilities for real time virtualisation engines.
• Future RAN computing architectures and technology implementable in cloud or distributed computing platforms whilst addressing the current Open RAN limitation, notably energy efficiency and security. It supports 5G spectrum implementation above C band and future 6G spectrum capabilities as well as massive MIMO implementations. ASIC implementation benchmark may be taken as a target for performance validations.
• Open computing platform supporting future RAN disaggregation and virtualization and enabling an open multivendor architecture, on which large numbers of European equipment vendors may innovate. Openness also enables intelligent RAN real time management, notably through Machine Learning processes enabling key performance optimisation, in particular spectrum sharing.

It is considered that participation of key European industrial players and RTO’s from the communication domain, the micro electronic domain, as well as key SME’s in these domains are needed.
