LONDON (Reuters) - Mobile operator Vodafone and chipmaker Qualcomm said they would join forces to develop a technical blueprint for telecoms equipment suppliers to use Open RAN (radio access network) technology.
"The move aims to lower the entry barrier for many companies and drive diversification of network equipment vendors," the companies said on Thursday.
