ns-3 ORAN Module

This module for ns-3 implements the classes required to model a network architecture based on the O-RAN Alliance's specifications. These models include a Radio Access Network (RAN) Intelligent Controller (RIC) that is functionally equivalent to O-RAN's Near-Real Time (Near-RT) RIC, and reporting modules that attach to simulation nodes and serve as communication endpoints with the RIC in a similar fashion as the E2 Terminators in O-RAN.
