    Abstract: A method for automatically creating an equipment inventory from a plurality of images of a site. The method includes receiving, by a processor, the plurality of images of the site, labeling, by the processor, equipment present in each image of the plurality of images of the site, creating, by the processor, an overlap curve for neighboring images of the plurality of images of the site, determining, by the processor, a useful image of each side of the site based on the overlap curve, the useful image including a subset of the plurality of images, creating, by the processor, an overlay of equipment in the useful image of each side of the site, counting, by the processor, equipment present in the overlay of each side of the site, and generating, by the processor, the equipment inventory by adding a number of equipment counted in the overlay of each side of the site.

    Abstract: Solutions to control use of back-up batteries of a radio access network in a virtual power plant are disclosed. In the solutions, a virtual power plant manager entity obtains site information on radio access network element sites, at least some of which are usable as additional power capacity providers in the virtual power plant, and energy balancing related information of a power grid using the virtual power plant. The virtual power plant manager entity determines, based at least on the site information and the energy balancing related information, for at least one virtual power plant entity for the virtual power plant, control information relating to the virtual power plant, the control information optimizing virtual power plant utility while maintaining radio network stability, and transmits said control information to the at least one virtual power plant entity.

    Abstract: Various example embodiments for supporting deterministic communications in communication networks may be based on use of a hybrid Programming Protocol-Independent Packet Processor (P4) deterministic switch. The hybrid P4 deterministic switch may include an electronic communication element configured to compensate for the jitter of incoming traffic to match a desired level of jitter for end-to-end deterministic communication of the incoming traffic and an optical communication element configured to support optical propagation of deterministic traffic received from the electronic communication element. The electronic communication element may include electronic packet queues, programmable electronic schedulers serving the electronic packet queues, and a P4 control element, where the electronic packet queues, the programmable electronic schedulers, and the P4 control element cooperate to support end-to-end deterministic communication of traffic based on control plane programming of the programmable electronic schedulers to serve the electronic packet queues in a manner providing end-to-end deterministic communication of the traffic.

    Abstract: In some examples, an apparatus for protocol independent deterministic transport of data in a time-sensitive network comprises a processor, a memory coupled to the processor, the memory configured to store program code executable by the processor, the program code comprising one or more instructions, whereby to cause the apparatus to receive synchronisation data from the network, the synchronisation data comprising a measure for a clock frequency supporting transport of deterministic data traffic over the network, receive multiple input packets, the input packets comprising deterministic data traffic and non-deterministic data traffic, and generate, from the multiple input packets and using the synchronisation data, a set of isochronous output packets comprising respective payloads and headers.

    Abstract: A machine-learning (ML) orchestrator entity provides distributed, flexible, and efficient parameter initialization and updating for ML agents can be installed on network nodes operating under similar radio conditions. The ML orchestrator entity instructs each of such network nodes to iteratively run the ML agent in a training mode. Each run yields a local set of parameters for the ML agent. After each run, the ML orchestrator entity collects and uses the local sets of parameters from two or more network nodes to derive a common set of parameters for the network nodes. The ML orchestrator further instructs each of the network nodes to update its own local set of parameters based on the common set of parameters and use the updated local set of parameters in a subsequent run. The ML orchestrator entity repeats these steps until a termination criterion for the training mode is met.
