What? Area-wide data and controls Why? Customize RAN with short time-to-market for:
 UE/cell/DU/CU level L1/L2/L3 measurements  Efficient resource usage – improve customer experience and optimize spectral
 UE locations and predicted trajectory efficiency by using policies/ML to tailor RAN for unique spectrum position and
geography based on holistic area-wide network view
 UE context info(video, voice, non-GBR data)
 New RAN services – customize RAN behavior for the needs of specific
 Per-UE policy-driven control of band/cell/bearer
verticals. E.g., create RAN slices for drones, connected cars, IoT, etc.
