Features and Capabilities

Parallel Wireless’s innovative cloud-native OpenRAN coverage solution enables coverage by lowering cost, simplifying installation, and increasing flexibility through disaggregation of hardware and software. The flexibility of our software platform enables deployment in urban or rural environments. To meet a variety of deployment scenarios, we have a large portfolio of OpenRAN hardware available from macrocells, to small cells, to Massive MIMOs, all orchestrated and managed by our OpenRAN and network software suite:

  • Offering ALL Gs in RRHs, all software upgradable to any G, and enabling access flexibility; shared capacity on COTS-based vBBU to provide voice and data on the same equipment.

  • Providing an overall low-cost solution with a cost structure that serves low density through deployment flexibility (can deploy 1 sector per site, or tri-sector where needed with the same hardware and all optimizations and handovers done by OpenRAN software) or high density through selection of OpenRAN hardware (macros, small cells or Massive MIMOs) that fit the deployment need.

  • Enabling the new telco value chain in coverage through flexibility in operation – with the Parallel Wireless OpenRAN controller enabling new business models, new revenue generation and network sharing – coverage network slice can be managed by a third party without affecting any other regional or urban slices.

Deployment Options

Uncertainty in the coverage business case (from the demand side) in low-density areas, operational complexity (from the cost side) and competitive pressure in urban/high density markets results in MNOs struggling to find a coverage solution that can address both scenarios:
