    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: Various example embodiments are directed a system that electronically discovers a plurality of current network components of an existing wireless network and relationships between the plurality network components. This is performed based on starting at a first network component and electronically continuously crawling through the wireless network via discovering and following links between the plurality of network components in real time. The system generates and then updates metadata describing a snapshot of a current network topology of the wireless network based on the continuous electronic discovery of the plurality of current network components of the existing wireless network and relationships between the plurality network components.

    Abstract: Spectrum and radio resources associated with a 5G radio unit (RU) of a host network are dynamically allocated amongst one or more guest networks. A provisioning plane receives inputs from a guest network operator that identifies desired times, locations and/or frequency bands for desired network coverage. The provisioning plane responsively identifies bandwidth allocations that meet the requested parameters for exclusive use by the guest network. User equipment (UE) associated with each guest network maintains time and frequency synchronization with the host network, but otherwise limits its communications to the frequency bands allocated to the guest network. By dynamically obtaining physical radio and spectrum resources from a host provider and by scaling backend network capabilities using cloud resources, guest networks for any number of different purposes can be quickly deployed or modified as desired.

    Abstract: Various arrangements for creating a slice on a cellular network are detailed herein. A cellular service request that indicates various metrics for a slice may be received. A test function may be created on the cellular network based on the cellular service request. Access to a reduced-scale slice that provides access to the test function for a small set of user equipment (UE) can be provided along with access to key performance indicators (KPIs) for the reduced-scale slice. The reduced-scale slice may then be converted to a production slice that provides access to the network function for a larger set of UE.

    Abstract: Uplink and downlink resources within a wireless network are assigned such that full duplex operation is enabled within a bandwidth parts. A first bandwidth part and non-overlapping second bandwidth part are assigned for use by respective first and second groups of user equipment. Uplink resources and downlink resources are also allocated within each bandwidth part. The uplink and downlink resources may be specified by a subband within the each bandwidth part and a timeslot, to thereby enable duplex operation of the first group of user equipment. Communications are then performed with the first group of user equipment using the uplink and downlink resources of first bandwidth part and communication with the second group of user equipment is performed using the uplink and downlink resources of the second bandwidth part.
