Performance Monitoring xApps via O-RAN KPM SM and BR SMs

Chieh-Chun Chen

O-RAN compliant and Cloud-native xApps designed to collect, aggregate, and expose real-time RAN-level and UE-level performance metrics via O-RAN standardized Key Performance Measurement (KPM) service model and BubbleRAN customized service models.

Detailed Description

This xApp delivers a scalable, real-time monitoring solution for 5G RAN environments. It leverages the O-RAN E2 interface (referred to as E42 within the xApp) to collect standardized, vendor-agnostic performance metrics from distributed RAN nodes, along with UE-level measurements across multiple protocol layers. The xApp supports both O-RAN standardized service models and BubbleRAN-customized service models, enabling seamless integration across heterogeneous and multi-vendor RAN deployments (OpenAirInterface, srsRAN, LITEON AIO, and Amarisoft). Built as a cloud-native application, it is designed for easy deployment, scalability, and integration within modern RIC environments.

Key Features

  • Real-time collection of RAN protocol metrics
  • O-RAN E2 interface compliant
  • Multi-vendor RAN node and UE monitoring
  • Cloud-native and scalable xApp architecture

Use Cases

  • Data collection for monitoring, analytics, and downstream optimization of mobile networks
