NVIDIA Aerial™ CUDA-Accelerated RAN is an application framework for building commercial-grade, software-defined, GPU-accelerated, cloud-native 5G/6G networks. The platform supports full inline GPU acceleration of layer 1 (cuPHY) and layer 2 (cuMAC) of the 5G stack. Aerial CUDA-Accelerated RAN platform is the key building block for the accelerated 5G virtualized distributed unit (vDU) and has been deployed in commercial and research networks.
