StormShield: Fingerprint-Based Detection and Mitigation of RRC Signaling Storms in O-RAN 5G RANs
Noemi Giustini, Andrea Lacava, Leonardo Bonati +4
5G networks provide low-latency, high throughput, and massive connectivity, yet the control plane remains exposed to several security threats. Among the most common and impactful t…
RANalyzer: Automated Continuous RAN Software Evaluation and Regression Analysis
Ravis Shirkhani, Reshma Prasad, Leonardo Bonati +2
Software-driven O-RAN architectures enable rapid innovation through frequent, independent updates to virtualized components. However, attributing performance variations to specific…
Predicting Conflict Impact on Performance in O-RAN
Pietro Brach del Prever, Niloofar Mohamadi, Salvatore D'Oro +7
The O-RAN Alliance promotes the integration of intelligent autonomous agents to control the Radio Access Network (RAN). This improves flexibility, performance, and observability in…
TENORAN: Automating Fine-grained Energy Efficiency Profiling in Open RAN Systems
Ravis Shirkhani, Stefano Maxenti, Leonardo Bonati +7
The transition to disaggregated and interoperable Open Radio Access Network (RAN) architectures and the introduction of RAN Intelligent Controllers (RICs) in O-RAN creates new reso…
xDevSM: An Open-Source Framework for Portable, AI-Ready xApps Across Heterogeneous O-RAN Deployments
Angelo Feraudo, Stefano Maxenti, Andrea Lacava +4
Openness and programmability in the O-RAN architecture enable closed-loop control of the Radio Access Network (RAN). Artificial Intelligence (AI)-driven xApps, in the near-real-tim…
AgentRAN: An Agentic AI Architecture for Autonomous Control of Open 6G Networks
Maxime Elkael, Salvatore D'Oro, Leonardo Bonati +4
Despite the programmable architecture of Open RAN, today's deployments still rely heavily on static control and manual operations. To move beyond this limitation, we introduce Agen…
