Abstract: A system and method for extracting a full range hyperspectral data from one or more RGB images. The method encompasses pre-processing, the one or more RGB images. Further the method encompasses estimating, an illumination component associated with each pre-processed RGB image. The method thereafter comprises removing, the illumination component from the each pre-processed RGB image. Further the method encompasses tracking, a trajectory of pixel(s) over frame(s) associated with the each pre-processed RGB image. The method then leads to identifying, a position of the pixel(s) in one or more adjacent frames of the frame(s) based on a patch defined around said one or more pixels. Thereafter the method encompasses extracting, the full range hyperspectral data from the each pre-processed RGB image based on at least one of the removal of the illumination component, the trajectory of the pixel(s) and the position of the pixel(s).

Abstract: In one example, a Network Functions Virtualization Orchestrator (NFVO) obtains a radio service descriptor defining communication parameters for a radio in a virtual Radio Access Network (vRAN). Based on the radio service descriptor, the NFVO determines whether a virtual Distributed Unit (vDU) that is configured in accordance with the communication parameters and a virtual Centralized Unit (vCU) that is configured in accordance with the communication parameters are already instantiated in the vRAN. If it is determined that the vDU or the vCU is not already instantiated, the NFVO automatically instantiates the vDU or the vCU in the vRAN.
