Changelog for v1.5.0: 5gdeploy Integration

  • Added modular core network support via USNISTGOV/5gdeploy [1].
    • Supported cores: Open5GS [2], OAI CN5G [3], free5GC [4], and Open5GCore [5].
    • Supported disaggregated UPF implementations: Open5GS UPF [2], free5GC UPF [4], Open5GCore UPF [5], eUPF [6], OAI UPF [7], OAI VPP UPF [8], SD-Core BESS [9], and NDN-DPDK [10].
    • For details, see the Additional_Cores_5GDeploy/ directory and the 5gdeploy GitHub repository [1].
  • Added ability to run split OpenAirInterface CU-DU deployments with support for an arbitrary number of DUs.
  • Added scenario automation for F1 handover of a UE between multiple DUs in the OpenAirInterface testbed.
  • Added optional interactive telnet support to the OpenAirInterface gNodeB and CU installation scripts.
  • Added automatic configuration generation for the O1 adapter connecting to OpenAirInterface gNodeB.
  • Fixed SCTP module loaders to properly handle kernels with built-in nf_conntrack_sctp (e.g., lowlatency kernels).
  • Improved support for UE-to-core and core-to-UE traffic generators when using cores beyond Open5GS.
  • FlexRIC KPM: Added E2SM-KPM support for custom slicing (1-octet if SD=0xFFFFFF, otherwise 4-octets, SST+SD) [11].
  • KPM with Grafana: Added support for serving and visualizing CSV files beyond KPI_Metrics.csv for better organization.
  • Fixed Open5GS subscriber generation to assign correct static IP and slice SST+SD when using over three RFsim UEs.
  • srsRAN gNB: Improved configs to maintain UE sessions for up to two hours of inactivity and synced with latest version.
  • Updated all software commit hashes and configuration files to ensure compatibility with the most recent versions.
  • Revised documentation, diagrams, and source code to reflect the changes listed above.
