Abstract: One embodiment is used in a scalable cloud environment configured to implement a plurality of virtualized entities that implement a part of a base station to provide wireless service to user equipment. The plurality of virtualized entities comprises first and second virtualized entities. Processing performed by the first virtualized entity generates data that is used by processing performed by the second virtualized entity. Cloud native software included in the scalable cloud environment is configured to collect cloud-native metrics associated with implementing the second virtualized entity in the scalable cloud environment. The existence of a congestion condition for the second virtualized entity can be determined based on the cloud-native metrics collected for the second virtualized entity and, in response to determining that the congestion condition exists for the second virtualized entity, a control action can be taken in order to throttle the first virtualized entity.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to automatically configuring a front-haul switched Ethernet network for a C-RAN. The topology of the front-haul switched Ethernet network is automatically discovered. One or more switches in the front-haul switched Ethernet network are automatically configured. The configuration of the one or more switches in the front-haul switched Ethernet network is automatically verified. The discovered topology can be automatically verified. Also, the discovered topology or the configuration of the front-haul switched Ethernet network can be automatically validated to check if it corresponds to a network design for the front-haul switched Ethernet network.

Abstract: One embodiment is directed to a system comprising a plurality of controllers and a plurality of radio points that provide wireless service to user equipment. The system is configured to serve a plurality of logical cells. The system is configured so that each logical cell is served by a respective group of the radio points. The system is configured to associate each group of radio points with a respective one or more controllers in order for the respective one or more controllers to serve the respective logical cell associated with that group of radio points while associated therewith. The system is configured to use a protection scheme in which the respective group of radio points that serves each logical cell does not change in the event of a fail-over that causes the one or more controllers associated with that group of radio points to change.

Abstract: One embodiment is directed to a multi-carrier radio point for use in a centralized radio access network (C-RAN). The multi-carrier radio point is configured so that the processing and hardware resources provided by the radio point can be associated with controllers of the C-RAN in a flexible manner. A single multi-carrier radio point can be used with multiple controllers to serve multiple cells, where the processing and hardware resources used for the multiple controllers need not be configured and used in the same way.
