Abstract: Embodiments are directed a system that monitors a plurality of relevant network conditions of a wireless cellular network. Over time, the system records a plurality of network snapshots based on the monitoring. Each network snapshot reflects a status of each applicable network condition at a respective point in time at which the snapshot was recorded. The system then generates a respective visual network topology map for each network snapshot through which the status of each network characteristic at the point time at which the snapshot was recorded is accessible. The system connects together each network snapshot resulting in a visual chronological historical record of the status of the network at each point time at which the snapshot was recorded reflected by each respective network topology map.

Abstract: A system comprises a home network including a Radio Access Network and a core network, a roaming network, and a User Equipment (UE) subscribing to the home network and the roaming network. The UE is configured to determine, while connected to a control plane of the core network, that the UE is not connected to a user plane of the core network. In response, the UE connects to the roaming network. While connected to the roaming network, the UE periodically attempts to connect to the home network. The UE switches back to the home network upon successfully connecting to the control plane and the user plane of the core network.

Abstract: Systems, devices and processes are provided to improve the design and implementation of radio frequency (RF) communication networks. Specifically, these various embodiments improve the likelihood of a successful RF network design by identifying and preferentially utilizing RF transmission sites having a relatively high probability of being successfully incorporated into the RF network. These various embodiments provide a site qualification database that includes site data for a plurality of RF transmission sites. When so implemented, the site qualification database is utilized to analyze the site data and generate a plurality of site scores, with each of the plurality of site scores providing a viability metric for the corresponding RF transmission site. The plurality of site scores is then utilized in rating each of the plurality of RF transmission sites. These ratings of the RF transmission sites are then utilized in an RF analysis.

Abstract: Embodiments are directed towards an adaptive DU scheduler that increases the user experiences on higher channel bandwidths (BWs) while ensuring no drops for Voice over New Radio (VoNR) or other high priority traffic. Example embodiments include systems and methods for an adaptive distributed unit (DU) scheduler in a wireless telecommunication network, such as a wireless 5G network. Example embodiments include systems and methods that include: a central scheduler for maximizing overall throughput based on received parameter values; maximizing the overall cell site throughput; an intelligence layer that has an artificial intelligence and/or machine learning (AI/ML) model that increases the performance for all the cells by sending info to central scheduler for each of the cells; an intelligence layer that has an AI/ML models for each site type based on the traffic distribution across each cell; centralized RAN pooling; a containerized DU server with master a controller pod controlling individual cell pods; and a containerized DU server with a DU common scheduler managing all the cells.

Abstract: Systems and methods to utilize user device self-reported quality metrics and machine learning mechanisms to optimize management of user device mobility in a cellular network. Cells in the network obtain quality data for one or more user devices in communication with the cells, including channel-quality-indicator values, reference-signal-received-power values, and reference-signal-received-quality values. The quality data is processed by a machine learning mechanism to generate a separate quality report for each cell. In response to receiving a request to handover communications for a target user device, the quality reports are utilized to select a cell that is predicted to provide the best quality communications for the target user device.

Abstract: When a failed connection is detected from a first radio unit (RU) to the cellular site router (CSR), activation of an existing backup cabled connection from the first RU to the CSR through a cabled connection between the first RU and a second RU of the cellular telecommunications tower may be performed. In one example, a first RU and second RU each have two physical network ports. The activation of the existing backup cabled connection from the first RU, via the second RU, to the CSR may include causing the first RU to enter from a normal operating mode into an Open Radio Access Network (O-RAN) cascade operating mode to attempt to attain network connectivity for the first RU using the second physical network port of the first RU.
