Abstract: Methods and systems for operating a Non-Terrestrial Network (NTN) within neighboring geographic areas, and where a Terrestrial Network (TN) is also operating in at least one of the areas. A set of two or more candidate Bandwidth Parts (BWPs) are selected for use by the NTN from spectrum allocated for use by the NTN which does not overlap with the channels used by the TN. The two or more BWPs may each specify a contiguous set of frequencies and timeslots. One of the candidate BWPs is assigned for use by the NTN as an active BWP in a first one of the neighboring geographic areas; and one candidate BWPs is also assigned for use by the UEs as an active BWP in a second one of the neighboring geographic areas.

Abstract: Systems and methods for facilitating inter-network handover of a communication with a call center are provided. In one example, a computer-implemented method includes: receiving, at a first network from a second network, information indicating a location of a user device, detecting, at the first network, presence or absence of an active connection between the user device and a call center designated to the first network, obtaining, at the first network, the location of the user device from the received information, in response to the detection of the presence of the active connection, and transmitting the information indicating the location to a location database in communication to the call center.

Abstract: An approach to adapt the topology of a disaggregated Radio Access Network (RAN) operating within a wireless network, depending on the attributes of a service to be supported by the RAN. The topology including a slice configuration for at least one of the disaggregated components of the RAN, including at least one Data Unit (DU), Central Unit (CU) or Control Unit (CU). Another resource, such as a compute or network resource may also be associated with topology. In some implementations, network connections between the resource and the disaggregated components of the RAN may be provided by a Virtual Local Area Network (VLAN).

Abstract: Systems and methods are described herein for utilizing dynamic terrestrial and non-terrestrial intra gNodeB handover in a wireless network. A location of a user device connecting to the network is determined. In response to the user device being located within a terrestrial-only coverage area of the network, the user device is connected to a terrestrial cell within the terrestrial-only coverage area. In response to the user device being located within a boundary area of the network, a terrestrial cell in the boundary area is selected and a cluster associated with that terrestrial cell is identified. The user device is connected to that terrestrial cell based on that cluster. But in response to the user device being located within a non-terrestrial-only coverage area of the network, a cluster associated with a terrestrial cell within the boundary area closest to the user device is identified, and the user device is connected to a non-terrestrial cell based on that cluster.

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: Embodiments include systems and methods for sharing a cellular wireless telecommunication network radio unit (RU) by multiple different mobile network operators (MNOs). The system causes the functionality of the RU to be concurrently provided as a service to a plurality of different MNOs which may also use shared spectrum frequency bands. Thus, such a system enables the MNO to build and operate its cellular wireless telecommunication network without any radio hardware other than that provided by the RU, and without owning any hardware, radio spectrum and physical infrastructure.

Abstract: Various hybrid cellular communication systems and methods are presented herein. A first cellular network can include multiple user plane functions (UPFs). Each UPF can serve as a gateway for user equipment (UE) to communicate with a remotely-hosted service. Which UPF serves as the gateway for a UE is adjusted while the UE remains connected with the first cellular network. While connected with the first cellular network, a multiple access (MA) packet data unit (PDU) session is active for the UE that allows for communication to occur concurrently between the UE and the remotely-hosted service via an access point (AP) and via a UPF. While connected with a second cellular network distinct from the first cellular network, a single access PDU session is active that allows for communication to occur with the service via a second UPF of the second cellular network.

Abstract: Various arrangements for spectrum sharing among a terrestrial network and a non-terrestrial network are presented herein. A first bandwidth part having a first frequency range for may be assigned use for communication between one or more UE of a plurality of UE and a terrestrial cellular network when a high signal strength is present. A second bandwidth part having a second frequency range may be assigned for use for communication between one or more UE of the plurality of UE and the terrestrial cellular network when a low signal strength is present. A third bandwidth part having a third frequency range can be assigned for use for communication between one or more UE of the plurality of UE and a non-terrestrial network. The third bandwidth part can overlap with the first bandwidth part but not the second bandwidth part.

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: A system and method for managing interference between different enterprises operating over the same spectrum. The system includes a central unit of a first enterprise associated with a first cell site; a central unit of a second enterprise associated with a second cell site; and an interface for connecting the central unit of the first enterprise to the central unit of the second enterprise and configured to transmit load information; wherein a central unit of either enterprise is configured to share load information without requiring a standard form between each enterprise via the interface to minimize interference between each enterprise when both enterprises are operating in the same spectrum and an overlapping coverage region between each cell site.
