  • Publication number: 20240147382
    Abstract: Radio unit output power management technologies are disclosed. An example method for managing output power of radio units serving a private communications network includes obtaining network status including output power status of the radio units and spectrum information indicating frequency bands utilized by the one or more radio units, performance requirements of the private communications network, and constraints applicable to output power of the radio units in accordance with the spectrum information. The method also includes determining a dynamically-optimized output power strategy for the one or more radio units to satisfy the performance requirements based on the output power status and spectrum information, subject to the constraints, and implementing particularized radio unit output power control based on the output power strategy.

  • Publication number: 20240147309
    Abstract: A method of operating a communication system includes: obtaining location information indicating a location of a private network and initial performance requirement information indicating initial performance requirements of the private network; obtaining, based on the location information and the initial performance requirement information, initial spectrum information indicating one or more initial licensed frequency bands and one or more initial unlicensed frequency bands; transmitting the initial spectrum information to an external device; obtaining updated performance requirement information indicating updated performance requirements of the private network; obtaining, based on the updated performance requirement information, updated spectrum information indicating one or more updated licensed frequency bands and one or more updated unlicensed frequency bands; and transmitting the updated spectrum information to the external device.

  • Publication number: 20240147439
    Abstract: A method of operating a private network includes obtaining channel requirement information indicating a bandwidth of a channel, obtaining available channel information indicating Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) frequency bands and non-CBRS frequency bands available to be allocated to the channel, selecting one or more of the CBRS frequency bands and one or more of first non-CBRS frequency bands based on the channel requirement information, generating channel aggregation information indicating the selected CBRS and non-CBRS frequency bands, generating transmission power level information for the selected CBRS and non-CBRS frequency bands, transmitting the channel aggregation information and the transmission power level information, receiving the first channel aggregation information and the first transmission power level information at an access point device, and transmitting data in the channel using the selected CBRS and non-CBRS frequency bands from the access point device based on the first transmi

  • Patent number: 9084314
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a programmable underwater lighting system for pools and spas. A plurality of underwater lights, each having a plurality of LEDs for producing light of various colors, a microprocessor for controlling the plurality of LEDs, and a memory in communication with the microprocessor containing one or more stored control programs, allow for the generation of various lighting effects in a pool or spa. A central controller is provided in communication with the plurality of underwater lights, and allows a user to define or select a desired lighting effect (such as a sequence, a fading effect, a “moving” color pattern, etc.) using a display and a keyboard. Optionally, a handheld remote control could be provided, in wireless communication with the central controller, for allowing a user to remotely control the plurality of lighting fixtures.
