Abstract: The present invention provides an efficient hardware architecture for an ORAN compliant thermal management module for a combined centralized unit and a distributed unit (CCDU) for a 5G basement application required for processing L1, L2 and L3 scheduling of the network. The CCDU design may provide the functionality of a CU and a DU with single unit and can operate over wide temperature range. A single board approach of the CCDU make the CCDU more reliable and less costly. The CCDU can support different kinds of synchronization and can provide site alarms over dry contacts to equip with external alarm device.

Abstract: The present invention provides an efficient and reliable systems and methods for facilitating standalone mode for an outdoor Small Cell (ODSC) for 5G. The system can be an all-in-one self-contained unit that houses an entire next generation Node B (gNB) functionality including but not limited to radio transceiver. an RF front end as well as antenna. The system may further include a network processor and an FPGA integrated on at least 18 but not limited to the like layers of an Integrated baseband and Transceiver board. The Integrated baseband and Transceiver board may further include a Clock synchronization architecture using system synchronizer IC and clock generators. The system can develop an LI layer and generate a bitstream in the FPGA while providing blind mating and a cable less design.

Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a 5G next generation integrated macro radio unit. The integrated radio unit includes an integrated baseband and transceiver board (IBTB) and a radio frequency front end board (RFEB), where the RFEB is operatively coupled with the IBTB. The IBTB includes at least a baseband processor, a transceiver, and a clock synchronization module. The RFEB includes one or more RF chains to receive RF signals from the IBTB. Further, the RFEB blind mates with the IBTB through one or more RF connectors.

Abstract: A system and method for 3D propagation modelling for planning of a radio network, is disclosed. In the present invention, automatic tuning of propagation path loss parameters of a Continuous Wave (CW) based 3D propagation model for LOS (line of sight) and NLOS (non-line of sight) radio transmissions in a first geographical area, is performed. Further, in the present invention, 3D propagation models for remaining geographies having similar geographical area and clutter types as the first geographical area, are generated without performing any drive test while compensating the propagation path loss parameters of the generated model using periodically measured user equipment (UE) data. The generated 3D models may be updated dynamically as the 3D models are developed based on UE data updated from time to time.
