  • Patent number: 11356504
    Abstract: An illustrative orchestration system is configured to provide, to a user equipment (UE) device communicatively coupled to a federation of compute clusters, cluster selection data for a subset of compute clusters from the federation of compute clusters. The cluster selection data is configured to facilitate the UE device in characterizing the compute clusters of the subset with respect to a service optimization policy. The orchestration system is further configured to receive, from the UE device, an orchestration request indicative of a compute cluster selected by the UE device based on the characterizing of the compute clusters of the subset. The orchestration system is configured to then orchestrate, in response to the orchestration request, fulfillment of a service request to be performed by the selected compute cluster for the UE device. Corresponding methods, systems, and devices are also disclosed.

  • Patent number: 10931586
    Abstract: Systems and methods described herein provide a multi-access edge computing (MEC) prediction service. A network device in a MEC network receives a predicted MEC route for an end device executing an application instance. The predicted MEC route identifies a projected time when the end device will connect to the network device for services and a service requirement for the application instance. The network device reserves resources to service the application instance at the projected time, based on the predicted MEC route. The network device provides a computing service for the application instance using the reserved resources when the end device initiates a data session with the network device.

  • Publication number: 20210037087
    Abstract: An exemplary user equipment (“UE”) device provides a service request to an orchestration system associated with a federation of compute clusters available to fulfill the service request. The UE device also identifies a service optimization policy associated with a user preference for balancing performance priorities during fulfillment of the service request. In response to the service request, the UE device receives cluster selection data from the orchestration system. Based on the cluster selection data, the UE device characterizes compute clusters, within a subset of compute clusters represented in the cluster selection data, with respect to the performance priorities. Based on the service optimization policy and the characterization of compute clusters in the subset, the UE device selects a compute cluster from the subset to fulfill the service request. The UE device then provides an orchestration request indicative of the selected compute cluster to the orchestration system.

  • Patent number: 10531309
    Abstract: A wireless network optimizing node receives key performance indicators (KPIs) from a base station of a cell site providing wireless service within a geographic area, wherein the KPIs are associated with wireless communication between beams of an antenna array of the cell site and User Equipment. The node determines a current cell site capacity usage for the cell site based on current wireless network usage parameters received from the cell site and determines a need for an additional antenna array to provide adequate coverage and capacity for the geographic area based on the current cell site capacity usage and the first KPIs. The node determines an optimum location within the geographic area for adding the additional antenna array.
