Abstract: In accordance with an example embodiment of the present disclosure Ethernet communication over IP transport is enabled. The following is performed: Ethernet communication for transmitting and receiving Ethernet frames; IP communication for transmitting and receiving IP data packets over a cellular network; transforming Ethernet frames to IP data packets and vice versa for enabling Ethernet communication over IP transport; and maintaining a header transformation table between Ethernet and IP traffic flows. The transforming comprises using the header transformation table and performing header transformation by removing Ethernet headers from received Ethernet frames and including Ethernet payload in IP data packets, and by reconstructing Ethernet headers for received IP data packets for transmission of payload from the IP data packets in Ethernet frames, wherein the transforming comprises using IPv6 headers of IP data packets to carry dynamic information from the removed Ethernet headers.

Abstract: The embodiments relate to a method, comprising transforming a physical environment into a three-dimensional (3D) digital representation; mapping the 3D digital representation to a feature vector representation to generate a set of features; determining a performance of a wireless network at the physical environment; enabling a machine learning algorithm to learn mapping between the determined performance and the generated set of features; generating a virtual layout of the environment; and generating performance prediction by means of the machine learning algorithm inferring a performance corresponding to the generated virtual layout. The embodiments also relate to technical equipment for implementing the method.
