Industry leaders launch new specification for 3G radio base stations (CPRI)
October 2, 2003
The companies Ericsson, Huawei, NEC, Nortel Networks and Siemens which
co-operate in the CPRI (Common Public Radio Interface) industry initiative
today announced the open publication of the specification for the key
internal interface in the radio base station. The CPRI specification for
this key interface is the first in the industry.
The companies have, in 4 months, completed the CPRI specification ahead
of schedule. The parties' individual objectives are to introduce products
compatible to the specification on the market during 2004.
CPRI focuses on a 3G radio base station design that divides the radio
base station into a radio and a control part, by specifying one new interface
- the only and unique radio driven interconnect point within base stations.
This will enable each part of the base station to better benefit from
the technology evolution in its respective area.
The CPRI specification is openly available for the benefit of the wireless
industry. Key benefits for Network Operators are the availability of wider
radio base station portfolio with adaptability to all deployment scenarios
with a shorter time to market. The CPRI specification enables base station
manufacturers and component vendors to focus their research and development
efforts on their core competencies. The CPRI specification allows for
new architectures and is not limited by module dimensions or a pre-defined
function split.
The CPRI initiative complements current activities in existing standardization
bodies. The interface developed will be used for radio base station products
in mobile systems.
