OAI Foundation Hands-on Workshop at North Carolina State University
About this Event
This second edition advances the OAI Foundation’s workforce development mission with a stronger focus on AI-native wireless systems and Integrated Sensing and Communications (ISAC). In collaboration with universities and U.S. Government agencies, OAI is preparing the next generation of engineers to design, build, and experiment with open, intelligent communication platforms spanning RAN, UE, Core Network, and RIC. Through hands-on training in open-source software development, AI-assisted engineering, network automation, and sensing-aware control loops, participants will gain practical experience with the technologies shaping 5G-Advanced and future 6G systems.
Over two days of hands-on sessions, participants will work directly with OAI instructors to develop and experiment with the OAI software stack across RAN, UE, Core Network, and RIC. The workshop will combine guided exercises with realistic deployment and automation scenarios, showing how AI-native methods can support software development, network optimization, telemetry analysis, and sensing-aware control. Participants will gain practical experience across the full OAI platform while exploring how open-source 5G systems can evolve toward ISAC-ready and future 6G architectures. They will also get the opportunity to exchange ideas with the engineers behind OpenAirInterface, discuss implementation challenges, and learn about the latest OAI developments in open RAN, Core Network, RIC integration, and AI-assisted engineering.
