Abstract: An Inter-Satellite-Link (ISL) for an Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) that is part of a Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN). The disclosed embodiment of an O-RAN system makes use of multiple satellite systems in combination with terrestrial based systems in various configurations to carry out the O-RAN system functions. An O-RAN system includes, among other structures and functions, a Radio Unit (RU), a Distributed Unit (DU), and a Central Unit (CU). This disclosure introduces various configuration/hierarchies of using satellites for the hardware and software to carry various portions of the RU, DU and CU in the O-RAN architecture. Various functions of the network can be implemented by satellite, with each satellite providing some level of RU and DU functionality. In one alternative, one satellite in a group of satellites acts as the DU in the form of a router, communicating with other satellites via the ISL, acting as a router.

Abstract: Systems and method for dynamically scaling network function nodes or pods in a wireless network. A number of existing nodes are determined for the wireless network, and an arrival load rate is determined for the existing nodes. A load existence time is also determined for the existing nodes. High and low load thresholds are defined based on the number of existing nodes, the load existence time, and the arrival load rate. A new node is added to the existing nodes in response to determining that a current load on each existing node meets the high load threshold. And at least one existing node is set for removal in response to determining that the current load on the at least one existing node is below the low load threshold. A new received load is then scheduled to be assigned to an existing node having a least average load.

Abstract: Methods and systems for operating a Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) within geographic areas, and where a Terrestrial Network (TN) is also operating in at least one of the areas. A set of two or more candidate channels are selected for use by the NTN from spectrum allocated for use by the NTN which does not overlap with the channels allocated for use by the TN. The two or more channels may each specify a contiguous set of frequencies and timeslots. One of the candidate channels is assigned for use by the NTN as an active channel in a first one of the geographic areas, and another one of the candidate channels is assigned for use by the UEs as an active channel in a second one of the geographic areas.

Abstract: Methods and systems for operating a Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) within neighboring geographic areas, and where a Terrestrial Network (TN) is also operating in at least one of the areas. A set of two or more candidate Bandwidth Parts (BWPs) are selected for use by the NTN from spectrum allocated for use by the NTN which does not overlap with the channels used by the TN. The two or more BWPs may each specify a contiguous set of frequencies and timeslots. One of the candidate BWPs is assigned for use by the NTN as an active BWP in a first one of the neighboring geographic areas; and one candidate BWPs is also assigned for use by the UEs as an active BWP in a second one of the neighboring geographic areas.

Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating inter-network handover of a communication with a call center are provided. In one example, a computer-implemented method includes: receiving, at a first network from a second network, information indicating a location of a user device, detecting, at the first network, presence or absence of an active connection between the user device and a call center designated to the first network, obtaining, at the first network, the location of the user device from the received information, in response to the detection of the presence of the active connection, and transmitting the information indicating the location to a location database in communication to the call center.

Abstract: An approach to adapt the topology of a disaggregated Radio Access Network (RAN) operating within a wireless network, depending on the attributes of a service to be supported by the RAN. The topology including a slice configuration for at least one of the disaggregated components of the RAN, including at least one Data Unit (DU), Central Unit (CU) or Control Unit (CU). Another resource, such as a compute or network resource may also be associated with topology. In some implementations, network connections between the resource and the disaggregated components of the RAN may be provided by a Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN).

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for utilizing dynamic terrestrial and non-terrestrial intra gNodeB handover in a wireless network. A location of a user device connecting to the network is determined. In response to the user device being located within a terrestrial-only coverage area of the network, the user device is connected to a terrestrial cell within the terrestrial-only coverage area. In response to the user device being located within a boundary area of the network, a terrestrial cell in the boundary area is selected and a cluster associated with that terrestrial cell is identified. The user device is connected to that terrestrial cell based on that cluster. But in response to the user device being located within a non-terrestrial-only coverage area of the network, a cluster associated with a terrestrial cell within the boundary area closest to the user device is identified, and the user device is connected to a non-terrestrial cell based on that cluster.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for prediction-based non-terrestrial network beam configuration and switching are provided. A base station determines a bandwidth part configuration for a user equipment, which includes a plurality of bandwidth parts respectively corresponding to a plurality of geographic areas. The base station configures the user equipment with the bandwidth part configuration and determines a position or movement of the user equipment in a first geographic area corresponding to a first bandwidth part. The base station determines, based on the position or movement, whether a criterion for reconfiguring the bandwidth part configuration is met. In response to determining that the criterion is met, the base station reconfigures the bandwidth part configuration of the user equipment while the user equipment is positioned in the first geographic area. The reconfiguration includes modifying the plurality of bandwidth parts to include a second bandwidth part corresponding to a second geographic area.

Abstract: Embodiments include systems and methods for sharing a cellular wireless telecommunication network radio unit (RU) by multiple different mobile network operators (MNOs). The system causes the functionality of the RU to be concurrently provided as a service to a plurality of different MNOs which may also use shared spectrum frequency bands. Thus, such a system enables the MNO to build and operate its cellular wireless telecommunication network without any radio hardware other than that provided by the RU, and without owning any hardware, radio spectrum and physical infrastructure.

Abstract: Various hybrid cellular communication systems and methods are presented herein. A first cellular network can include multiple user plane functions (UPFs). Each UPF can serve as a gateway for user equipment (UE) to communicate with a remotely-hosted service. Which UPF serves as the gateway for a UE is adjusted while the UE remains connected with the first cellular network. While connected with the first cellular network, a multiple access (MA) packet data unit (PDU) session is active for the UE that allows for communication to occur concurrently between the UE and the remotely-hosted service via an access point (AP) and via a UPF. While connected with a second cellular network distinct from the first cellular network, a single access PDU session is active that allows for communication to occur with the service via a second UPF of the second cellular network.
