Abstract
A system for configuring a Time Division Duplexing (TDD) configuration in an Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) is disclosed. The system includes a set of Service Management and Orchestration (SMO) devices comprising a first SMO device, a second SMO device, and a governing SMO device. The governing SMO device receives respective Open Radio Unit (O-RU) location information and O-RU deployment information from each of the first and second SMO devices. The governing SMO device determines a distance between a first base station and a second base station. The governing SMO determines a propagation delay corresponding to a guard time based on the distance. The governing SMO determines a recommended Time Division Duplexing (TDD) configuration based on the guard time. The governing SMO communicates the recommended TDD configuration to at least one of the first SMO device or the second SMO device.
