Integration combines open-source CU/DU software and U.S.-developed 5G radio technology through standard ORAN interfaces
SUNNYVALE, CALIFORNIA – Eridan today announced successful integration of its 5G Open RAN radio platform with the latest release of the OCUDU open-source CU/DU software stack. Completed in less than one day using standard ORAN interfaces, the integration demonstrates interoperability between Eridan’s radio technology and the OCUDU software platform.
The integrated platform combines OCUDU’s CU/DU software with Eridan’s Ultra-Clean Signal™ radio technology and supports a broad range of wireless applications, including mobile operator networks, private 5G deployments, government systems, utilities, defense, and critical infrastructure.
“We are proud to bring to market a commercial 5G solution that pairs our Ultra-Clean Signal™ radio technology with the powerful open-source OCUDU software stack,” said Omid Tahernia, CEO of Eridan. “Integrating with the latest OCUDU release in less than a day demonstrates the progress the industry has made in achieving Open RAN interoperability. Open interfaces only matter if independent platforms can work together in practice.”
OCUDU extends that interoperability model beyond open interfaces by making the CU/DU software itself available as open source. The platform provides a common software foundation for testing, validation, feature enhancement, and AI-RAN applications across the ecosystem.
“OCUDU was created to provide a shared, interoperable software foundation for Open RAN development – acting as a transformative catalyst for the telecommunications industry,” said Dr. Tom Rondeau, Principal Director of FutureG, OUSW(R&E). “The successful integration with Eridan’s highly efficient, Ultra-Clean Signal radio technology demonstrates the immense power of this model. The pairing by Eridan of this open-source CU/DU software stack with their low-power direct polar architecture is proof that the Open RAN ecosystem can rapidly deliver scalable, carrier-grade performance through innovations from U.S. commercial industry. We are excited to see how Eridan’s solution can significantly reduce the energy footprint and infrastructure costs required for both advanced commercial 5G and tactical DoW deployments at the edge.”
Eridan has integrated its radio platform with 15 CU/DU solutions and is actively contributing to interoperability testing and feature validation within the OCUDU project.
