Unlike previous generations of mobile communications, 5G is designed for more than smartphones. The low latency and high data rates, combined with the secure and reliable communications that a 5G system can provide, are useful for a wide variety of special-purpose scenarios, including military applications. The military community has been investigating the potential of 5G and showing interest in this type of technology through various publications and demonstrations. However, the open Radio Access Network (RAN), as an emerging paradigm, is still barely explored by the military scientific community. O-RAN principles and new architecture offer key opportunities and enablers for using 5G systems in military applications and boost the design of new use cases. This paper first presents an overview of the O-RAN paradigm and architecture, with a view of their potential for military applications. Then, a technical review of a military perspective of O-RAN use cases is provided, concluding with recommendations to accelerate technology maturation and potential adoption in the military ecosystem. This paper was originally presented at the NATO Science and Technology Organization Symposium (ICMCIS) organized by the Information Systems Technology (IST) Panel, IST-200 RSY - the ICMCIS, held in Skopje, North Macedonia, 16-17 May 2023.
与以往的移动通信技术不同，5G的设计目标不仅限于智能手机。其低延迟、高数据速率以及5G系统所提供的安全可靠的通信能力，使其适用于多种特殊用途场景，包括军事应用。军方已通过各类出版物和演示活动，积极研究5G的技术潜力，并表现出浓厚兴趣。然而，作为新兴范式，开放的无线接入网络（RAN）在军方科研界仍处于初步探索阶段。O-RAN原则和新型架构为在军事应用中使用5G系统提供了关键机遇和实现条件，并推动了新应用场景的设计。本文首先概述了O-RAN的范式与架构，分析其在军事应用中的潜力；随后从军事视角对O-RAN的应用案例进行技术评述，并最后提出建议，以加速该技术的成熟化及其在军用生态系统中的推广应用。本文最初于2023年5月16日至17日在北马其顿斯科普里举行的北约科学技术组织研讨会（ICMCIS）上发表，该会议由信息系统技术（IST）小组主办，会议代码为IST-200 RSY - ICMCIS。 |
