  • Patent number: 12598123
    Abstract: A pre-scaled accumulated byte count of a port of a network node over a sampling period is scaled with a scaling factor to generate a scaled accumulated byte count. The pre-scaled accumulated byte count represents a total number of bytes in packets transferred by the port. The scaling factor represents a first port-specific attribute of the port and scales a port-specific maximum throughput of the port to a specific maximum port throughput of the network node. An iterative vector encoding method is applied to the scaled accumulated byte count to generate an encoded bit vector comprising bits respectively ordered bit positions. Each set bit of the encoded bit vector represents a respective weighted value of port utilization of the port. The encoded bit vector is stored, at a map location, in an operational statistics map.

  • Patent number: 12580817
    Abstract: The described technology is generally directed towards conflict management of applications implemented on a radio access network (RAN) network. Various embodiments are presented to enable identification of a potential conflict (e.g., where an application is being onboarded) as well as a present conflict (e.g., where two or more applications are already operational). Conflicts may directly affect a control target, e.g., two applications are trying to control the same target. Conflicts may indirectly affect a control target, two applications affect a first metric and a second metric, but a third metric is affected. Conflict resolution includes preventing an application onboarding, terminating operation of an application, identifying causes unrelated to the application, rolling back operation of the RAN to a prior condition (e.g., pre-conflict condition), and suchlike. Conflict resolution can be conducted at a RAN intelligent controller (RIC).

  • Patent number: 12574422
    Abstract: Technology is disclosed herein for WPS call handling for at a roaming or non-WPS supported locations. In an implementation, a wireless network receives a SIP invite for user device from a roaming RAN of a visited network. The user device is subscribed to the wireless network and is authorized for WPS service by the wireless network. The IMS core of the wireless network sends a request to the subscriber management function of the network for a user profile for the user device including the PLMN of the roaming RAN. The subscriber management function identifies a user profile from multiple user profiles for the user device based on the PLMN. Each of the multiple user profiles corresponds to a PLMN category of multiple PLMN categories. The session manager of the wireless network sends a request to establish a default bearer to the roaming RAN based on the user profile.

  • Patent number: 12557091
    Abstract: The technology described herein is directed towards having a trained artificial intelligence/machine learning (AI/ML) model provide an accurate physical layer (PHY/L1) processing time prediction that a MAC (medium access control) scheduler can use to schedule resources more efficiently. The AI/ML model is trained with large, easily obtainable datasets of configurations of tasks, to return an accurate processing time estimate based on input configuration data representing task data to be scheduled. The model can map a sequence of configurations for consecutive time slots to a sequence of expected processing times for each slot, while capturing temporal information for previously scheduled but not yet processed tasks, making it possible to optimize task execution sequences by choosing an optimal permutation for configurations/tasks. A real time scheduler can test multiple task hypotheses to select the most optimal one for a time slot.
