  • Patent number: 12167479
    Abstract: A system, apparatus and method for installation of outdoor CPE (Customer Premise Equipment) for CBRS (Citizen Broadband Radio Service) for fixed wireless access is disclosed. The system comprises a database server which stores data comprising eNodeB locations and details, pathloss models and throughput prediction data. A position/orientation sensor and WiFi access point are attached to the CPE during installation. For a specified CPE height and a range of pointing angles, a smartphone app is used in scan mode to obtain KPI and evaluate nearby eNodeBs for performance based on stored parameters and link type, to provide estimated UL/DL throughput data for each eNodeB. After selecting an eNodeB, in network entry mode, a RF link between the CPE and eNodeB is established to request SAS grant. If successful in entering operational mode, actual throughput is measured to ensure the desired performance is attained, and data are reported back to the database.

  • Patent number: 10756803
    Abstract: A multi-beam antenna system, apparatus and method for dynamic carrier aggregation to multi-beam antenna mapping in radio access networks, including small-cell deployments, is disclosed. Apparatus comprises a compact base transceiver unit with integrated multi-beam antenna comprising antenna groups configurable for operation in a plurality of modes, with one or more selected antenna groups enabled, for different use-case scenarios. The base transceiver unit comprises a daisy-chained radio-frequency (RF) system wherein one baseband processor feeds multiple RF transceivers; each RF transceiver front end comprises a software configurable isolation module through which each RF front end is interlinked to previous and next RF front ends to enable dynamic routing of TX/RX data streams through the daisy chain, e.g.
