Abstract: A communication system with enhanced user datagram protocol support for precision time protocol (PTP) is provided. The system includes a base station that is configured to provide communication services for user equipment (UE) located within a cell. The base station includes a network service orchestrator (NSO) that is configured to automatically deploy a PTP daemon that includes PTP service instructions. A PTP pod is in communication with the NSO to receive the PTP service instructions. At least one distributed unit (DU) pod is in communication with the PTP pod. The PTP pod is configured to provide timing configuration information to the at least one DU pod.

Abstract: A computing system having a vDAS compute node implementing at least one virtual network function (NF) in a virtualized distributed antenna system (vDAS) having a plurality of radio units (RUs). The computing system includes server and vDAS compute node. The vDAS compute node includes vDAS container(s) running on a first subset of cores. The server: receives periodic capacity usage reports from the vDAS compute node(s); compares scaling metric data derived from the periodic capacity usage reports to threshold limits to determine if any threshold limits have been reached by any scaling metric data for the vDAS compute node; when any threshold limits have been reached by any scaling metric data for at least one vDAS compute node: cause vDAS compute node to scale capacity by either instantiating or deleting additional vDAS container on second subset of cores of the at least one vDAS compute node.
