"By using OpenRAN technology and Weaver Labs' secure software management platform, Cell Stack, the stadium's existing network infrastructure was integrated with a 5G, cloud-based private telecom network. Enhanced with Madevo's AI cloud technology, which enables stadiums to host their own private AI network, the trial is said to have delivered ultra-fast, reliable connectivity allowing fans to access a range of real-time digital services, all running smoothly over the same network."
"With some exceptions at Premier League grounds and national stadiums, getting good mobile connectivity at UK sports venues has been a perennial challenge, but a new technology consortium is claiming to have launched groundbreaking technology that will revolutionise the fan experience. The technology has been developed through Project Arana, a collaboration between the University of Bristol's Smart Internet Lab, artificial intelligence (AI) experts Madevo, and other industry partners, led by network specialists Weaver Labs."
Project Arana united the University of Bristol's Smart Internet Lab, Madevo, Weaver Labs and partners including Meta, Samsung, Capgemini, Satellite Applications Catapult, Offshore Renewable Energy Catapult and Nokia. The consortium integrated OpenRAN and Weaver Labs' Cell Stack to create a 5G, cloud-based private telecom network at MK Dons stadium. Madevo's AI cloud technology enabled a private AI network hosted on the same infrastructure. Trials delivered ultra-fast, reliable connectivity supporting real-time digital services and high-quality live video streaming. The approach aims to transform traditional sports venues into fully smart-enabled stadiums with enhanced fan interaction.
