RAN Slicing

RAN slicing, or Radio Access Network slicing, is a technology that allows a single mobile network to create multiple, separate virtual networks on the same physical infrastructure. Each "slice" can be customized to meet specific needs—for example, one for high-speed internet, another for reliable public safety communication, or for IoT devices. This ensures that different services can operate efficiently and securely, tailored to their requirements, without interfering with each other. Essentially, RAN slicing optimizes resource use and provides versatile, reliable connectivity suited for diverse applications.
