StarHub, SUTD partner for Open Radio Access Network implementation

The ORAN technology will streamline the development of RAN-related applications.

StarHub has signed a research collaboration agreement with the Singapore University of Technology (SUTD) to lead the Open Radio Access Network (ORAN) implementation. 

The collaboration, announced at the Mobile World Congress 2024, involves joint trials and demonstrations within the Future Communications Connectivity Lab (FCCLab).

The FCCLab, supported by the Infocomm Media Development Authority and National Research Foundation Singapore, focuses on future-proofing Singapore’s communication capabilities. 

“Singapore is set to enhance its technological infrastructure, and through this collaboration, we strive to enable more use cases for ORAN, allowing for new heights in network agility, scalability and innovation,” said Ayush Sharma, chief technology officer of StarHub.

StarHub will provide engineers, specialists, and relevant network equipment for ORAN implementation and trials.

The ORAN technology will streamline the development of RAN-related applications, including AI and ML-based radio optimization and power-saving applications. 

StarHub and SUTD will implement a 5G packet gateway at SUTD premises, bringing the core network closer to end-users.

A NOTE FROM SINGAPORE BUSINESS REVIEW

The people you want to reach are already in this room.

Every quarter, SBR lands on the desks of the founders, CFOs, and directors running Asia's most consequential companies. Every day, they open our newsletter and read our website. It's a room that took twenty years to build — and it's the one most of our partners are trying to get into.

The good news is that the door is open. We work with companies on thought leadership articles, sponsored content, industry summits across Southeast Asia, regional awards programmes, podcasts, and media placements in print and digital. The shape of the right partnership depends on what you're trying to do, which is why we'd rather start with a conversation than send a rate card.


If you have something this room should know about, tell us. We'll tell you honestly whether we can help, and how.

No rate cards until we understand the brief. It's a better use of everyone's time.
