    Abstract: A method may be disclosed in accordance with some embodiments, comprising: receiving, at a virtualizing gateway, a first service request from a first user equipment (UE) via a first eNodeB; creating, at the virtualizing gateway, an association from each of a plurality of UE identifiers to a desired core network; applying, at the virtualizing gateway, a first filter using a first UE identifier of the first UE, based on the association; forwarding, at the virtualizing gateway, based on the applied first filter, the first service request from the first UE to the first core network; receiving, at the virtualizing gateway, via a second eNodeB, a second service request from a second user equipment (UE); applying, at the virtualizing gateway, a second filter using a second UE identifier of the second UE, based on the association; and forwarding, at the virtualizing gateway, based on the applied second filter, the second service request from the second UE to the second core network.

    Abstract: A method is disclosed for improved tracking area planning and handling, comprising: assigning a single tracking area code to a plurality of eNodeBs at a messaging concentrator gateway, the messaging concentrator gateway situated in a network between the plurality of eNodeBs and the core network; storing, at the messaging concentrator gateway, at least one indicator of a last known location of a user equipment (UE) other than the single tracking area code; receiving a paging message from the core network at the messaging concentrator gateway for a UE; and performing a paging sequence using the at least one indicator to identify a set of eNodeBs to page the UE, thereby allowing larger tracking area list sizes to be used without increasing signaling traffic between the radio access network and the core network.

    Abstract: This invention discloses a mesh network comprised of at least two dynamic base station nodes, wherein the two dynamic base station nodes comprise each a multiple radio access technology architecture, the multiple radio access technology architecture comprising: at least two radio access technologies for providing access to a core network, and an abstraction layer communicatively coupled to the at least two radio access technologies for receiving and converting data into protocol agnostic data, wherein the first and second dynamic base station nodes are configured to: in response to a query regarding environmental conditions from a computing cloud component, send an environmental condition to the computing cloud component, receive an instruction from the computing cloud in response to the computing cloud component having processed the environmental condition, and change an operational parameter in response to the received instruction. The first and second dynamic base station nodes support at least two of a 3G RAT, a 4G RAT, and a 5G RAT.
