Anywave® Base Station
Vanu's software RAN solutions enable mobile operators to have the flexibility to design and offer differentiated solutions to meet the needs of their end customers. Anywave® is the first FCC-certified, commercially available software RAN solution, utilizing a single reusable hardware platform to support multiple wireless services and standards simultaneously.
Anywave utilizes a modular, scalable component architecture to support a broad range of RAN configurations. RF and processor modules in the base station allow operators to configure a system tailored to their current and future spectrum and capacity requirements. Vanu BSC and EMS software can be deployed on individual servers, or on blades within a telco-grade blade server chassis for enhanced scalability. Native IP support throughout simplifies connectivity and enables a variety of redundancy options.
Most importantly, each wireless standard is entirely implemented in high level languages running on high volume, high performance commercial off-the-shelf processors, allowing customers to choose the best and most cost-effective processor for their application. Anywave provides a flexible, scalable RAN solution ideally suited for operators seeking to deploy new services and standards quickly and cost-effectively.
Advantages for Mobile Operators
- Upgradeability: Allows for the addition of new wireless standards quickly via remote software downloads, eliminating costly hardware duplication when adding new services in an existing deployed frequency band. Speeds time to market through ease of use and cost minimization.
- On Demand Capacity Allocations: The addition of system capacity can be expedited simply by remotely downloading Anywave software. Traffic channels can also be added to multiple sites within hours instead of weeks, thus ensuring your RAN is flexible enough to meet immediate needs of end user performance.
- Remote Management: The reduction of the number of site visits through remote network diagnostics and software downloads helps operators control administration and maintenance costs.
- Cost Reduction: The reduction of site rental and electrical utility costs due to a smaller base station footprint with fewer hardware requirements enables a greener solution.
