Abstract: One embodiment is directed to using a set of multi-cell virtual network functions (VNFs) that natively perform baseband processing necessary to provide wireless service to user equipment (UEs) using multiple cells. Respective demand information for each cell is determined. A respective allocation of the one or more resources for each cell is determined based on the demand information for the multiple cells. For each cell scheduling of the respective UEs is performed for that cell with an objective of ensuring that a respective demand for the one or more resources in connection with serving that cell does not exceed the capacity associated with the respective allocation of the one or more resources for that cell and baseband processing necessary to provide respective wireless service via that cell is performed in accordance with the scheduling for that cell. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: The present disclosure describes methods and apparatus for real-time physical layer processing in distributed units (DU). A downlink data processing method includes receiving a downlink transport block at the physical layer and generating a plurality of sub-transport blocks mapped to a plurality of symbols by processing the received transport block. The method further includes processing the plurality of sub-transport blocks sequentially using at least one transfer function to generate the plurality of symbols which are then transmitted to a radio unit (RU) for transmission to a user equipment (UE). An uplink data processing method includes generating an uplink transport block by processing a plurality of symbols received at the DU from the RU. The plurality of symbols are processed using at least one uplink transfer function. A downlink/uplink transfer function is functionally equivalent to a plurality of down-link/uplink sequential signal processing modules.

Abstract: Among other things, a communication system comprising at least one remote unit and controller is described. The at least one remote unit wirelessly exchanges radio frequency (RF) signals with mobile devices. Each RF signal comprises information destined for, or originating from, at least one of the mobile devices. The at least two remote units and the controller communicate baseband data corresponding to the information across an intermediate network. The at least two remote units each implement at least some physical layer processing for an air interface used to wirelessly communicate with the subscriber devices. The controller is configured to perform at least some receive signal processing using combined data resulting from combining at least some of the baseband data communicated from more than one of the at least two remote units.

Abstract: A system includes a plurality of remote units; a centralized unit communicatively coupled to the plurality of remote units via a fronthaul network; and an entity that performs deep packet inspection. The centralized unit transmits sets of data to the plurality of remote units across the fronthaul network in packets, each of the sets of data mapped to at least one of the plurality of remote units and each of the packets including a respective indicator indicating each remote unit the associated packet is intended for, wherein each indicator comprises a plurality of bit positions where each bit position is mapped to a different one of the plurality of remote units. The entity performs the deep packet inspection on the packets to determine each remote unit the packets are intended for and communicate each packet to each remote unit the packet is intended for over the fronthaul network.

Abstract: A communication system comprising remote units and controllers or controller resources is described. The controllers or controller resources are configured to assign airlink resources to the user equipment, the airlink resources being for transmission or reception of at least some of the information passing between the remote units and the user equipment. The controller is separated from the remote units by an intermediate network. The controllers or controller resources are configured to obtain information about data capacity demands in different areas of the site, and to configure one or more communication cells in the different areas of the site based on the information about data capacity demands in order to accommodate the data capacity demands, wherein the one or more communication cells are configured by changing assignments of a number of the remote units with a number of the controllers or controller resources.

Abstract: A C-RAN includes a plurality of remote units; and a central unit communicatively coupled to the remote units via a fronthaul network. The central unit is configured to determine sets of data to be sent to respective subsets of remote units across the fronthaul network. The central unit is also configured to determine a mapping of each of the sets of data to a respective one of the subsets of remote units. The central unit is also configured to, for each of the sets of data, if at least one of the multicast groups wholly contains the respective subset of remote units mapped to that set of data, transmit that set of data to the respective subset of remote units over the fronthaul network by multicasting that set of data to the multicast group that best matches the respective subset of remote units mapped to that set of data.

Abstract: One embodiment is used in a scalable cloud environment configured to implement a plurality of virtualized entities that implement a part of a base station to provide wireless service to user equipment. The plurality of virtualized entities comprises first and second virtualized entities. Processing performed by the first virtualized entity generates data that is used by processing performed by the second virtualized entity. Cloud native software included in the scalable cloud environment is configured to collect cloud-native metrics associated with implementing the second virtualized entity in the scalable cloud environment. The existence of a congestion condition for the second virtualized entity can be determined based on the cloud-native metrics collected for the second virtualized entity and, in response to determining that the congestion condition exists for the second virtualized entity, a control action can be taken in order to throttle the first virtualized entity.

Abstract: A system includes a plurality of remote units and a centralized unit communicatively coupled via a fronthaul network. The centralized unit implements a plurality of multicast groups. The centralized unit determines each of a plurality of sets of data to be sent across the fronthaul network to a respective corresponding subset of the plurality of remote units in the cell. The centralized unit also determines a mapping of each of the plurality of sets of data to a corresponding preferred subset of the plurality of remote units. For a set of data, the centralized unit also transmits the set of data to the corresponding subset of the plurality of remote units over the fronthaul network by multicasting the set of data to a multicast group of the plurality of multicast groups that best matches the corresponding preferred subset of the plurality of remote units mapped to the set of data.
