 On 28 February 2023, NTT DOCOMO announced that it has begun researching and developing a RAN intelligent controller (RIC) that enables multivendor interoperability for O-RAN.
The RIC, a software-defined framework that automatically controls and optimizes RAN functions together with various types of RIC application software, will serve a vital role in O-RAN by interconnecting with multivendor base station equipment for improved network quality and efficiency as well as reduced operational costs.
DOCOMO will also demonstrate how its envisioned RIC can intelligently optimize the effective use of radio frequency through new RIC application software that controls antenna beams when signals are transmitted from base stations.
