Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, receiving, by a first radio module at a first location, a wireless signal, to obtain a first received RF signal. The wireless signal includes information originating at a remote transmitter and conveyed via a wireless channel. An envelope of the first received RF signal is detected by the first radio module without requiring a local oscillator, to obtain a first baseband signal. The first baseband signal may be filtered and/or amplified, after which it is provided to a processor. The processor also obtains a second digital signal from a second radio module receiving the wireless signal at a second location and determines an estimate of the information originating at the remote transmitter according to the first and second signals. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, generating a graph having nodes corresponding to garages, and edges corresponding to distances between pairs of garages that store moveable assets. A complexity of the graph in terms of nodes and/or edges is reduced, e.g., by segmenting the graph into sub-graphs, to obtain a modified graph. For each sub-graph, utilization values of the moveable assets are estimated for each node and metrics are calculated as pairwise differences between estimated utilizations less twice the distance between the corresponding garages. Candidate node pairs are identified as having metric values greater than zero. Node assets are ordered according to utilizations and a transfer recommendation is identified according to a garage pair having a maximum metric and an asset pair utilization having maximum difference. Other embodiments are disclosed.

Abstract: A framework for dynamic network resource allocation and energy saving based on the real-time environment, radio network information, and machine learning (ML) can be utilized via a radio access network (RAN) intelligent controller (RIC). Real-time and predicted network utilization can facilitate resource and energy savings by leveraging the RIC platform. For example, a network information base (NIB) in the RIC platform can collects RAN and user equipment (UE) resource related information in real time and provides the abstraction of the access network in the real time. ML can predict real-time information about the UEs at time t based on data analytics and real time radio resource needs. The RIC can then instruct the network to reduce or increase resources.
