contents Radio Access Network (RAN) disaggregation is emerging as a key trend in beyond 5G, as it offers new opportunities for more flexible deployments and intelligent network management. A relevant problem in disaggregated RAN is the functional split selection, which dynamically decides which baseband (BB) functions of a base station are kept close to the radio units and which ones are centralized. In this context, this paper firstly presents an architectural framework for supporting this concept relying on the O-RAN architecture. Then, the paper analyzes how the functional split can be optimized to adapt to the different load conditions while minimizing energy costs.
