  • Publication number: 20220386136
    Abstract: Facilitating analysis and resource planning for advanced heterogeneous networks (e.g., 5G, 6G, and beyond) is provided herein. A system is provided that includes a processor and a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations. The operations can include determining that a resource is to be added to existing resources at a grid level of a heterogeneous network. Further, the operations can include selecting candidate locations for placement of the resource based on a coverage-driven objective and a capacity-driven objective defined for the heterogeneous network. The coverage-driven objective can be associated with a demand for services within the grid level of the heterogeneous network. The capacity-driven objective can be associated with demand growth within the grid level of the heterogeneous network. The resource can be a fifth generation millimeter wave node or a cloud radio access network node.

  • Publication number: 20220295369
    Abstract: Predicting small cell capacity and coverage to facilitate offloading of macrocell capacity is presented herein. A system selects a group of candidate locations for placement of respective small cells to facilitate offloading, via the respective small cells, of traffic from respective macrocells corresponding to the candidate locations—the respective small cells including first transmission powers that are less than second transmission powers of the respective macrocells. Further, for each candidate location of the group of candidate locations, the system determines an estimated amount of traffic capacity of a small cell of the respective small cells that has been presumed to have been placed at the candidate location, and determines estimated signal strengths of respective signals that have been predicted to have been received from the small cell at respective portions of a grid of a defined signal coverage area corresponding to the candidate location.

  • Patent number: 10819585
    Abstract: A network device that determines RACH root sequences for AP devices within a given market. The network device can utilize a specialized graph coloring process or algorithm that has been adapted to, e.g., ensure that no two neighboring AP devices share the same RACH root sequences, provided certain additional constraints not found in graph coloring theory are met. For example, AP devices can have multiple RACH root sequence, whereas in traditional graph coloring problems, each vertex typically has only one color.
