    Abstract: A system is disclosed, comprising: a solar panel; an electric power supply source; a wireless fronthaul access point coupled to a radio mast and in communication with a remote baseband unit, the wireless fronthaul access point further comprising a first millimeter wave wireless interface; a self-organizing network module in communication with a coordinating server; and an antenna-integrated radio for providing access to user equipments (UEs), mounted within line of sight on the radio mast with the wireless fronthaul access point, the antenna-integrated radio further comprising: a second millimeter wave wireless interface configured to receive the digital I and Q signaling information from the remote baseband unit wirelessly via the wireless fronthaul access point, wherein the wireless fronthaul access point thereby wirelessly couples the remote baseband unit and the antenna-integrated radio. Synchronization is used to pack used resource blocks to reduce the duty cycle of the PAs, thereby reducing power.

    Abstract: The disclosed invention presents new approach for FEC implementation as part of existing link between the PHY layer (L1) and MAC layer. In one embodiment a method for providing cellular network Forward Error Correction (FEC) offload, includes merging FEC functionality into the PHY-MAC interface including placing FEC functionality IPs inside a small form factor (SFP) transceiver and allowing configurations from the PHY controller; identifying data carrying packets; encoding/decoding of the data payload; and forwarding an encoded/decoded payload to the next layer.

    Abstract: A system is described which can identify inconsistent coverage (grey spots) or coverage black spots based on real time network and user reported event patterns, and dynamically improve the RF coverage in the identified areas based on UE location reporting.
    A method is disclosed for providing near-RT-RIC based RF management for a network. In one embodiment, the method includes subscribing, by a near-RT RIC to the CU, real time UE reported event patterns; identifying from the reported event patterns one or more of inconsistent coverage and area where no coverage is received; reporting to the near-RT RIC when serving becomes better than a threshold or serving becomes worse than the threshold pattern fluctuations or cell-edge condition patterns with serving becomes better than a threshold or serving becomes worse than the threshold pattern fluctuations and wherein a neighbor becomes offset better than serving and neighbor becomes better than threshold; and taking dynamic corrective actions to self-heal the networks inconsistent coverage.

    Abstract: Systems and methods are disclosed for a CDMA base station management gateway for integrating CDMA into an LTE Evolved Packet Core (EPC) core network. In one embodiment, a system is disclosed, comprising: a base station management gateway situated between a code division multiple access (CDMA) base transceiver station (BTS) and an Evolved Packet Core (EPC) core network, the base station management gateway also situated between an additional base station and the EPC core network, the base station management gateway The method may further comprise: a stateful interworking proxy configured to perform interworking of CDMA signaling to Evolved Universal Mobile Telecommunications System Terrestrial Radio Access (EUTRAN) signaling by using an S2a/S2b interface toward the EPC and an A10/A11 interface towards the CDMA BTS; and a packet routing virtual function configured to enable mobile devices attached to the CDMA BTS to obtain IP connectivity via the EPC core network.

    Abstract: A method is disclosed for providing IP access across packet data network gateways (PGWs), comprising: receiving, from a UE, at a coordinating node, an attach request; sending a request to create a first new session to a first PGW; sending a request to create a second new session to a second PGW; receiving, from the first PGW and at the coordinating node, a first request for policies for the UE; receiving, from the second PGW and at the coordinating node, a second request for policies for the UE; opening a first data tunnel from the coordinating node to the first PGW; opening a second data tunnel from the coordinating node to the second PGW without closing the first data tunnel; and opening a data tunnel between the UE and the coordinating node for providing IP access to both the first PGW and the second PGW.
