If and when the TTSA is reintroduced in the 117
th Congress, lawmakers should expand the act to promote 5G technology alternatives, particularly open radio access networks (open RAN). Network architecture featuring open RAN entails interoperable software run on vendor-neutral hardware, which offers advantages in security, interoperability, and supply chain resiliency.
Expanding the legislation to prioritize open RAN solutions has several benefits. For one, linking financing to advancing these solutions would signal U.S. government support key for the viability and broad adoption of this technology alternative. This would be a boon to American companies, who are key players in open RAN. It would also have the effect of encouraging European firms to enter and compete in the open RAN space, which would boost greater technology sovereignty in Europe as well as deepen transatlantic cooperation on digital infrastructure, telecommunications, and technology norms.
