RAN Architecture

RAN (Radio Access Network) architecture is the framework that connects your mobile device to the core internet and phone services. It includes the radio towers and equipment that communicate wirelessly with your device, handling data transmission and voice calls. Modern RAN architectures, like Cloud RAN or Open RAN, aim to make this process more flexible and efficient by centralizing or standardizing hardware and software. This setup improves network performance, scalability, and allows easier upgrades, ensuring you get better coverage and faster data speeds as network technology advances.
