Abstract: Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for determining a grid-of-beams (GoB) are provided. One method may include collecting network data for training a neural network, train the neural network, using the collected data, to learn a non-discounted cumulative reward Q that evaluates a benefit of including a given beam into a grid-of-beams (GoB), iteratively applying the trained neural network to select at least one optimal beam to include in the grid-of-beams (GoB), and selecting one or more beams from the grid-of-beams (GoB) to transmit to a user equipment or to receive transmission from the user equipment.

Abstract: The present invention addresses method, apparatus and computer program product for dynamic cell clustering for Coordinated Multipoint operation. Clustering metric information defining relevant metrics for making cell clustering decision for Coordinated Multipoint operation are received from a network element serving a neighboring cell, and based on the received clustering metric information, it is decided whether to include the neighboring cell to a cluster for Coordinated Multipoint operation.

Abstract: A method includes receiving, from a radio access network (RAN) node within a wireless network, connection event information for one or more user devices and associated channel condition information; and determining a connection behavior status of a user device based on at least a portion of the connection event information and associated channel condition information and a connection behavior status model, wherein the connection behavior status model provides a mapping or association between connection event information and associated channel condition information for one or more user devices and a connection behavior status.

Abstract: To maximize power saving in a radio access network comprising cells, an optimal action amongst actions comprising switching on one or more cells, switching off one or more cells, and doing nothing is determined using a trained model, which maximizes a long term reward on tradeoff between throughput and power, the trained model taking as input a load estimate. The trained model may be updated online using measurement results on load, throughput and power consumption.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods in a communication system are provided. A method comprises receiving from network instructions of how to control multi-user multiple input multiple output connections maintained by one or more radio access nodes, the connections utilising one or more slices. One or more radio access nodes perform, based at least in part on the received network instructions, multi-user pairing of terminal devices of the same or different slices, and determine, based at least in part on the received network instructions, slice-based quota taking multi-user pairing and interference arising from paired allocations into account.

Abstract: UE-related measurements taken on a Pcell in a wireless communication system are formed into a set of data. The Pcell overlaps with Scell(s). The UE-related measurements on the Pcell are for a specific UE in the Pcell. Using a ML algorithm applied to the set of data, achievable channel quality is predicted for the specific UE for each of the Scell(s). The predicted achievable channel qualities are output for the specific UE to be used for Scell selection. At a RAN node, the set of data is sent toward an Scell prediction module for the module to determine information suitable to enable Scell selection for the specific UE. The RAN node receives information from the module allowing the RAN node to inform the selected UE of Scell(s) to be used for Scell selection for the specific UE. A node may train the ML algorithm using UE-related measurements on the Pcell.

Abstract: Apparatuses and methods in a communication system for identifying transient blockage are presented. Transmission to one or more RAN nodes of parameters for the one or more RAN node is controlled to detect occurrences of sharp channel degradation events in connections served by the node. Data is received from the one or more RAN nodes, the data being related to channel or transmission events related to detected sharp channel degradation in connections served by the node. Based on the received data, likelihood is determined that one or more RAN nodes have a high level of transient blockages.
