    摘要: Described are techniques for limiting bandwidth requirements for user equipment UE data sent on a front haul link between a remote radio head RRH and a baseband unit BBU. For a given UE a subset of a plurality of beams is selected based on received energies of the plurality of beams, and for the given UE only data from the selected subset of beams transmitting on a front haul link. Multiple techniques are detailed for how the subset is selected, including (when UE allocation information is available) averaged received beam energy, total received beam energy, maximum received beam energy and also (when UE allocation information is not available). For further bandwidth reduction a special data compression technique uses the received energies of each beam to select a minimum gain offset value after dividing the data into I and Q components.

    摘要: Disclosed is a method for requesting data from a set of remote units in a network, the method comprising: defining an Asynchronous Ubiquitous Protocol, the Asynchronous Ubiquitous Protocol comprising a schedule of a plurality of time slots, each time slot defined by a distinct start time and end time pair; broadcasting transmitting instructions to the set of remote units, the transmitting instructions comprising the Asynchronous Ubiquitous Protocol and selection instructions for selecting a time slot from the Asynchronous Ubiquitous Protocol to use for data transmission; and, receiving data transmitted from a remote unit in the set of remote units in accordance with the transmitting instructions.
