Patent number: 11863998Abstract: One wireless telecommunications system includes a Mobile Central Office (MCO) for capacity sharing via a master scheduling system. The MCO is communicatively coupled to a plurality of wireless base stations, each being operable to handle a session from a wireless device and to handoff the session to another wireless base station when the wireless device moves into a range of the other base station. Each of the wireless base stations is operable to convey capacity information to the master scheduling system through the MCO, and to acquire capacity from one or more wireless base stations of another MCO when directed by the master scheduling system.Type: GrantFiled: August 30, 2021Date of Patent: January 2, 2024Assignee: Cable Television Laboratories, Inc.Inventors: Luis Alberto Campos, Bernard McKibben, Jennifer Andreoli-Fang, Joey Padden, Justin Colwell, Ian MacMillan

Patent number: 9479940Abstract: Systems and methods presented herein provide for capacity sharing between wireless systems. In one embodiment, a scheduler is operable with a plurality of wireless base stations. Each base station is operable to digitize a frequency spectrum of radio communications from a plurality of user equipment (UEs). The scheduler communicatively couples to first and second Mobile Central Offices (MCOs). The scheduler processes the digitized frequency spectrums of the base stations, extracts radio communications of a first of the UEs from the digitized frequency spectrums of one or more of the base stations coupled to the first MCO, determines that a capacity of the first MCO has been exceeded, determines that a capacity of the second MCO is available, acquires at least a portion of the capacity of the second MCO, and handles a call of the first UE through the capacity acquired from the second MCO.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2014Date of Patent: October 25, 2016Assignee: CABLE TELEVISION LABORATORIES, INC.Inventors: Joey Padden, Bernard McKibben, Jennifer Andreoli-Fang, Luis Alberto Campos, Ian MacMillan, Justin Colwell
