Open RAN Studio is an inclusive R&D environment with OpenAirInterface and/or srsRAN 4G/5G stack and BubbleRAN O-RAN stack (near-RT RIC, Non-RT RIC, xApps, rApps, and SMO/OAM. Formally, it is a production-grade cloud-native platform allowing users to seamlessly design, operate, and experiment an emulated end-to-end 3GPP and O-RAN standard-compliant network with edge services, at scale.
