Abstract:
A radio system comprises a plurality of software defined radio units, and a plurality of digital data switches each in operative communication with at least one of the radio units, with the digital data switches operatively connected to each other. A plurality of antenna units are each in operative communication with at least one of the radio units through at least one of the digital data switches. A plurality of radio resources managers are each operatively coupled to one or more of the digital data switches, with each of the radio resources managers configured to control one or more of the digital data switches to route digital data between the radio units and the antenna units.
Abstract:
Radio resource management (RRM) systems and methods are disclosed. In one embodiment, an RRM system comprises: at least one radio frequency unit that transmits and receives signals over an antenna; at least one software defined radio unit configured to communicate with the radio frequency unit, wherein the software defined radio unit generates and receives signals corresponding to different communication systems; at least one processing device coupled to the software defined radio unit; and at least one memory device coupled to the processing device and configured to store instructions which, when executed by the processing device, cause the processing device to: receive a plurality of situational data inputs; select at least one communication system using the situational data inputs; and configure the radio frequency unit and the software defined radio unit to transmit and receive signals using the selected communication system, wherein the configuration is based on the situation data inputs.
