  • ONAP Honolulu reqmnt for A1 Policy functions approved through ONAP ArchCom & PTL approved. M1 expected 7thJan
  • Claudio David Gasparini Question about reuse of ONAP code in OSC at OSC TOC call: John Keeney No issue found. If there is a later divergence we will work it out then
  • Claudio David Gasparini Same for ONF? John Keeney Don't know. Have had no communications. Would welcome working together if its useful. Hopefully divergence can be avoided.

• SIM:
• OAM:

Swaminathan Seetharaman

ONAP H M1 extension ... 7th January?

• ONAP Usecases:
  • Please see:  Potential ONAP <-> O-RAN collaboration use cases 
  • Swaminathan S Usecases & requirments requirements working through requirements & usecases & architecture committee. 
  • John Keeney Come see ONAP A1 Policy functions at Demo on Friday(See above)
  • John Keeney A1 Policy Functions in ONAP H passed Archcom & has PTL Approval
• ONAP Slicing Usecase:
  • Swaminathan S Hope to use the A1 interface to nearRTRIC. Come along to ONAP Slicing use case call for more info.
  • John Keeney WHich Which nearRTRIC will you use in that use case: Swaminathan S Not decided yet, maybe Simulator or OSC nearRTRIC.
  • John Keeney How would a nearRTRIC/RAN-CNF be deployed / stood-up? SDC, ? Orchestrator?. Swaminathan S in Guilin all NFs are already up & running. May move to dynamic instantiation etc in Honolulu. Lots to do for modelling too in H for RU/DU/CU. Also Midhaul & Fronthaul & would need to interact with transport slicing functions .... TBC
  • Swaminathan S Will demo slicing in early Jan. Would be great to engage O-RAN folks there.
  • Swaminathan S Looking for update on Yang Model ... (Please confirm with Martin Skorupski & O-RAN WG1 team).
  • Swaminathan S Any plans in OSC for Slicing? John Keeney Don't think there is a plan in OSC Dawn to look at slicing. Will of course touch base if there is
• ONAP SON use case
  • Swaminathan S Currently SON has PCI & ANR SON functions. A simulator exists if useful for OSC. 
  • John Keeney Any plan to make the SON use case more general for other usecases? If so any way it would align with Control-Loop/Apps in ONAP or rApps in OSC?
    • Swaminathan S Should be possible for other use cases to add their own use cases following SON/Control-loop approach. Will add more usecases if they drive platform capabilities forward.
    • Swaminathan S Also hope to look at control loop interactions (Paused since Frankfurt). Also hopw how to look at ML-based SON.
    • John Keeney Sounds like good options for alignment. Let's keep doors open

Please see:  Potential ONAP <-> O-RAN collaboration use cases

• Lasse Kaihlavirta CSIT in ONAP ... Disaggregating CSIT many CSIT functions out to individual projects & more granular. John Keeney Great. A1 Policy functions need to & will align more towards this in ONAP H.
