Abstract: A device may receive performance requirements for a service, and may receive RAN factors that influence a RAN, core factors that influence a core network, and transport factors that influence a transport network. The device may determine a RAN capability to satisfy the performance requirements, and may determine a core capability to satisfy the performance requirements. The device may determine a transport capability to satisfy the performance requirements, and may determine RAN configuration settings, core configuration settings, and transport configuration settings based on the RAN capability, the core capability, and the transport capability, respectively. The device may generate a RAN SON based on the RAN configuration settings, a core SON based on the core configuration settings, and a transport SON based on the transport configuration settings. The device may create a network slice based service area based on the RAN SON, the core SON, and the transport SON.

Abstract: A device may receive explicit congestion notification data associated with user devices connected to a network of network devices, and may receive network data identifying network metrics associated with the network devices. The device may generate an active queue management mapping table based on utilizing a model to process the explicit congestion notification data and the network data. The device may determine, based on the active queue management mapping table and the network data, a routing table that includes routing data identifying traffic paths with active queue management enabled network devices and without non-active queue management enabled network devices of the network devices. The device may provide the routing table to the network devices.

Abstract: A device may provide path data identifying a primary path and one or more alternate paths for segment routing traffic in the network, and may receive performance data indicating a performance degradation in the primary path. The device may determine that the performance data satisfies a first threshold, and may request, based on the performance data satisfying the first threshold, alternate path performance data. The device may receive the alternate path performance data based on the request, and may compare the alternate path performance data for the one or more alternate paths. The device may select a particular alternate path, of the one or more alternate paths, based on comparing the alternate path performance data for the one or more alternate paths, and may trigger, based on the performance data satisfying a second threshold, a failover of the traffic from the primary path and to the particular alternate path.

Abstract: Systems and methods for communicating in an Ethernet cloud radio access network are disclosed. In some implementations, a baseband unit determines a time when a plurality of remote radio heads, accessible to a user equipment, are scheduled to transmit a signal to the user equipment. The baseband unit transmits, via an Ethernet connection and in advance of the determined time, the signal and information about the determined time to each of the plurality of remote radio heads, to enable the plurality of remote radio heads to simultaneously transmit, at the determined time and via a radio connection, a Fourier transform of the signal to the user equipment.
