ML-Enabled Open RAN: A Comprehensive Survey of Architectures, Challenges, and Opportunities
arXiv:2604.01239v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: As wireless communication systems become more advanced, Open Radio Access Networks (O-RAN) stand out as a notable framework that promotes interoperability and cost-effectiveness. An examination of the progression of RAN architectures, as well as O-RAN’s underlying principles, reveals the importance of machine learning (ML) in addressing various challenges, including spectrum management, resource allocation, and security. Hence, this survey provides a comprehensive overview of the integration of ML within O-RAN, highlighting its transformative potential […]
