Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and apparatus controlling an uplink (UL) transmission power of at least one user equipment (UE) operating in a wireless communication network (100) comprising a plurality of UEs (104a-104c) and a base station (102). The method includes calculating an operating ratio for each UE from said plurality of UEs, determining whether said operating ratio for each UE meets a predefined UL power transmission threshold, and instructing said at least one UE to manage UL transmission power based on said determination.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and a system for managing radio unit or Open-Radio Unit (O-RU) (116) failure. The method manages the O-RU failure through a plurality of NETCONF (Network Configuration Protocol) clients by a management-plane (M-Plane) in an open radio access network (100). The method includes establishing the M-Plane between the O-RU and the plurality of NETCONF clients available with each of an Open-Distributed Unit (O-DU) (114) and a Service Management and Orchestration (SMO) framework (102) and detecting failure by the plurality of NETCONF clients in the connection between the O-RU and the plurality of NETCONF clients within a session at a predefined time duration. Lastly, the method includes switching the connection from a hybrid model to a hierarchical model in case of the failure with the hybrid model, whereby switching the connection ensures returning to the hybrid model without reset when the SMO framework connection is back.

Abstract: The present invention provides a method and an apparatus for real-time remote sensing of a plurality of antenna configuration parameters in a radio access network (RAN) configured with the radio unit includes receiving the plurality of antenna configuration parameters by the sensor module from the antenna, transmitting the received plurality of antenna configuration parameters from the sensor module to a plurality of hardware devices using a programmable interface on the radio unit.
