5G SBP Use Case -ORAN-SC: RAN Slice SLA Assurance

Use this template to submit Use Cases for submission to the 5G Super Blueprint Use Case & Requirements Advisory Group. All input is required unless marked "(optional)"

 

Use Case Name:

ORAN-SC: RAN Slice SLA Assurance

Use Case Name:

ORAN-SC: RAN Slice SLA Assurance

Use Case Description:

An existing ORAN-SC Use Case uses simulators. The goal of this PoC is to plug existing ORAN-SC use case into the 5G SBP infra. Target ORAN-SC H release target June/July 2023.

Problem Statement and how is the problem solved:

Create RAN slice using ORAN-SC radio access software components based on service levels specified and show dashboard or reports that service levels are met

Users Stories

  • a.Create RAN Slice with SLA

  • b.Show successfully meeting SLA based on metrics

  • c.Show SMO can automatically manage SLA targets under adverse conditions (HW/SW malfunction)

Demo Storyline (optional)

 

Interaction with other open source projects and components

  • a. O-Cloud/MEC/Virtual Infrastructure 

  • b.Transport   VNFM/VIM 

  • c. Data Collection and Reporting (ORAN-SC SMO and/or DCAE)

Questions

@Muddasar Ahmed 
@Gervais-Martial Ngueko
Does scope include following:

Use of ORAN SMO, Use of EMCO/ONAP to orchestrate RAN Slice

Use of RIC to manage and monitor Slice SLA

Use of SMO to manage and monitor non-ORAN-SC, ORAN compliant gNodeB

Slice security posture visibility and maintenance 

Underlying infrastructure inclusion (Transport, O-Cloud)

Any Dynamic Slice management scenarios (capacity and performance elasticity)
