Abstract
Packet loss in the fronthaul adversely affects radio services, especially the low-layer functional split options between Distributed Unit (DU) and Central Unit (CU). A 1+1 protection scheme is implemented in a Software Deļ¬ned Networking (SDN) packet-over-optical transport test-bed, achieving seamless recov-ery of the 7-1 split option from an optical link failure in the fronthaul.
