Abstract: A transmitter in a frequency domain duplexing (FDD) network system is configured to receive spectral information from neighbor receiver nodes. For each of the neighbor receiver nodes, the transmitter computes an SNR at each of the plurality of frequencies, forming an SNR curve. For each of the transmit frequencies, the transmitter identifies minimum SNR values among the SNR values on the SNR curves. The minimum SNR values form a composite minimum curve. Based on the composite minimum curve, the transmitter determines whether an SNR of a current transmit frequency is above (1) a first threshold associated with an operating SNR, or (2) a second threshold associated with a maximum of the composite minimum curve. Based on the determination, the transmitter determines whether a new transmit frequency is selected to replace the current transmit frequency.

Abstract: A network management system can be configured to identify routes for satisfying a set of demands on a communications network using a network graph that represents the communication network. The network graph edges can have edge scores that indicate a priority of the edge. The edge score for a network edge corresponding to a communication link in the communication network can depend on the topology of the communication network or the characteristics of the communication link. The network management system can iteratively identify candidate path(s) on the network graph that correspond to each of the demands and determine a score for each candidate path using the edge scores. In each iteration, the network management system can select the lowest score candidate path, update the network graph to reflect the selection of this candidate path, update the edge scores based on the updating of the network graph, and update the candidate paths for the remaining demands as needed.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and devices for wireless communication are described. A user equipment (UE) may determine a duplexing configuration (e.g., frequency division duplexing (FDD) or time division duplexing (TDD)) of a carrier based on one or more synchronization signals. The UE may then receive a master information block (MIB) on the carrier, and may interpret one or more fields of the MIB based on the duplexing configuration of the carrier. The configuration dependent fields may include a special subframe field, a system information location field, or both. In some cases, such as in a TDD configuration, the UE may postulate a special subframe configuration of the carrier in order to receive the MIB, and may update the postulated special subframe configuration after receiving the MIB.

Abstract: A RAN node can indicate to a UE that a compact measurement report is to be used for beam measurements in a measurement report. A compact measurement report uses beam index numbers to indicate a position in a reference set. The reference set has a listing of resource indicators for beam measurements. As such, a reported beam measurement associated with a beam index number is also associated with the resource indicator positioned in the reference set indicated by the beam index number. The beam index numbers can be transmitted using fewer bits than are used for a resource indicator. The payload for a measurement report such as a L-SINR or L-RSP L1 measurement report is thereby reduced when the measurement report is transmitted as a compact measurement report.

Abstract: A computer system obtains information describing a geographical area segmented into multiple first clusters serviced by a telecommunications network. Multiple test locations are identified within the first clusters. Each test location is located within a grid of the geographical area. Each first cluster is recursively segmented into multiple second clusters until a difference between a number of test locations within each second cluster and a target number of test locations is less than a threshold number of test locations. A route is generated connecting test locations within each second cluster, using a routing application programming interface for performing drive testing of the telecommunications network. The computer system sends the route to one or more computer devices for performing the drive testing at the test locations in a sequence corresponding to the route.
