Abstract
The described technology is generally directed towards interoperability between distributed units (DUs) and radio units (RUs) in a radio access network (RAN) network. Various embodiments are presented to enable automated determination and/or automated implementation of various configurations and functionalities on a physical random access channel (PRACH) between a DU and a RU. The automated operations presented herein enable a DU to discover and verify PRACH functionality (e.g., regarding PRACH time offset) supported by a RU and/or implementation of the PRACH functionality at the RU to enable interoperability between the DU and the RU, thereby satisfying the interoperability requirement of the O-RAN specification.
