摘要： An apparatus and system of adjusting network slice subnet instance (NSSI) resources in an open-radio access network (O-RAN) are described. The non-real time RAN Intelligent Controller (Non-RT RIC) framework of a Service Management and Orchestration (SMO), receives measurements from E2 nodes of a NSSI. The measurements are forwarded to an rApp in the SMO, which uses the measurements to determine whether one or more actions are to be executed to update NSSI resources on the E2 nodes based on an NSSI optimization model. The Non-RT RIC framework sends a modify Managed Object Instance (MOI) operation to the E2 nodes to adjust the NSSI resources.

摘要： Systems and methods of re-configuring PCI values for a NR cell and performing mobility robustness optimization are described. To reconfigure the PCI values. The NRM data and the PCI of candidate cells measurements are analyzed to detect a potential PCI collision or PCI confusion among NR cells. In response to detection of the potential PCI collision or confusion, a new PCI value for at least one NR cell is determined and instructions to re-configure the at least one NR cell with the new PCI value are sent to a producer of provisioning MnS. For MRO, a NF provisioning MnS with modifyMOIAttributes operation to configure MRO targets for an MRO function and to enable the MRO function for a NR cell are consumed, as is a performance assurance MnS with a notifyFileReady or reportStreamData operation to collect MRO-related performance measurements. The measurements are analyzed to evaluate MRO performance.

摘要： Systems and methods of supporting RACH optimization and monitoring of UP packet delay performance are described. During RACH optimization, a NF provisioning MnS with modify MOIAttributes operation to configure targets for RACH optimization and a NF provisioning MnS with modifyMOIAttributes operation are separately consumed to enable a RACH optimization function for a NR cell. After this, a performance assurance MnS with notifyFileReady or reportStreamData operation is consumed to collect RACH optimization-related measurements for the NR cell and RACH performance data of the RACH optimization-related measurements analyzed to evaluate RACH optimization performance for the NR cell. During monitoring of UP packet delay performance, raw performance measurements related to UP packet delay based on at least one of NG-RAN measurement results or time stamps in GTP packets are obtained from a NG-RAN or UPF, UP packet delay performance measurements are generated. UP packet delay performance could be optimized based on the performance measurements.

摘要： Systems and methods for orchestration and configuration of end-to-end network slices across a 3GPP core network and ORAN are described. The network includes a NSMF that receives an AllocateNSI operation with attributes to allocate an NSI. The AllocateNSI operation includes an attributeListIn parameter that specifies network slice properties in a ServiceProfile to be supported by the NSI. The NSMF determines that a new NSI is to be created rather than using an existing NSI and that the new NSI is to contain a NSSI (RAN) and a NSSI (CN). The NSMF communicates with a NSSMF (RAN) and NSSMF (CN) to create the new NSI. The new NSI includes an O-CU-CP, O-CU-UP and O-DU VNFs, and an O-RU PNF for the NSSI (RAN), and UPF, AMF, and SMF VNFs for the NSSI (CN).

A cell of an enhanced Node B (eNode B) can be mapped into a plurality of UE distribution bins. A UE in the cell of the eNode B can be associated with a UE distribution bin based on a location of the UE in the cell that is determined using a time advance (TADV) value and an angle of arrival (AOA) measurement of an UL transmission from the UE to the eNode B.
