  • Publication number: 20240147382
    Abstract: Radio unit output power management technologies are disclosed. An example method for managing output power of radio units serving a private communications network includes obtaining network status including output power status of the radio units and spectrum information indicating frequency bands utilized by the one or more radio units, performance requirements of the private communications network, and constraints applicable to output power of the radio units in accordance with the spectrum information. The method also includes determining a dynamically-optimized output power strategy for the one or more radio units to satisfy the performance requirements based on the output power status and spectrum information, subject to the constraints, and implementing particularized radio unit output power control based on the output power strategy.

  • Publication number: 20240147309
    Abstract: A method of operating a communication system includes: obtaining location information indicating a location of a private network and initial performance requirement information indicating initial performance requirements of the private network; obtaining, based on the location information and the initial performance requirement information, initial spectrum information indicating one or more initial licensed frequency bands and one or more initial unlicensed frequency bands; transmitting the initial spectrum information to an external device; obtaining updated performance requirement information indicating updated performance requirements of the private network; obtaining, based on the updated performance requirement information, updated spectrum information indicating one or more updated licensed frequency bands and one or more updated unlicensed frequency bands; and transmitting the updated spectrum information to the external device.

  • Publication number: 20240147439
    Abstract: A method of operating a private network includes obtaining channel requirement information indicating a bandwidth of a channel, obtaining available channel information indicating Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) frequency bands and non-CBRS frequency bands available to be allocated to the channel, selecting one or more of the CBRS frequency bands and one or more of first non-CBRS frequency bands based on the channel requirement information, generating channel aggregation information indicating the selected CBRS and non-CBRS frequency bands, generating transmission power level information for the selected CBRS and non-CBRS frequency bands, transmitting the channel aggregation information and the transmission power level information, receiving the first channel aggregation information and the first transmission power level information at an access point device, and transmitting data in the channel using the selected CBRS and non-CBRS frequency bands from the access point device based on the first transmi

  • Patent number: 4723672
    Abstract: A tamper-proof container for medicaments or the like includes a receptacle and a cap, each featuring self-locking means so that when mutually engaged the container can only be accessed by changing its profile. Two external components, a guard and a shield, respectively, must be broken at their line of integration, and disengaged to provide access to a slot for parting the container at its neck. Such parting, provides access to a barrier which must be cut along a pre-scored line. The arrangement is such that the cap can be threadedly engaged with the receptacle to store a medicament dosage cup and includes a sanitation cover.
