New OCUDU dApp platform enables real-time AI in 5G distributed units

Researchers have introduced the OCUDU dApp platform, an open runtime designed for real-time AI applications within 3GPP 5G distributed units. This platform allows independently developed software to execute directly on the GPU receive chain or within strict scheduling deadlines. The paper details the platform's architecture, including its runtime, E3 agent, and public repositories, showcasing how AI-RAN applications can be packaged, signed, and managed. A demonstration on an NVIDIA GB10 Grace Blackwell Superchip successfully ran various dApp classes, including a neural equalizer, without performance degradation. AI

    The OCUDU dApp Platform: An Open Runtime and E3 Interface for Real-Time AI-RAN

    arXiv:2609.07843v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Machine learning has shown its largest gains in the band below 10 ms inside a 3GPP new radio (NR) 5G distributed unit (DU): link adaptation, per-slot scheduling, channel estimation, and the receiver itself. No open platform has le…
