Abstract(in English) In order to meet the requirements of diverse services in the advanced 5G era, we have proposed Adaptive RAN, in which the placement of virtualized RAN functions (vCU/vDU) is changed according to the service requirements. In Adaptive RAN, a RAN coordinator controls RAN behavior such as radio resource allocation to vDUs in order to assure the service quality. The control is performed using the information collected via the interface between RAN and the RAN coordinator. However, no study has shown what type of information should be collected and how the information should be aggregated in order to balance effective use of the limited interface bandwidth and better service quality assurance. In this paper, we focus on the radio resource allocation to vDUs, and we evaluated the influence of the collected information type on communication quality.
