Patent number: 11558093Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for dynamically adjusting broadcast beam patterns of a wavefront emitted by an antenna array based on the velocities of devices communicatively coupled to the base station associated with the antenna array. The broadcast beam patterns can be adjusted by modifying the broadcast mode or at least one phase, amplitude, or power of the at least one antenna associated with the base station. Adjusting the beam pattern, for example between multiple beams and a single unified beam, based on device types can improve the quality of service for the devices and reduce the processing burden of the base station.Type: GrantFiled: January 29, 2021Date of Patent: January 17, 2023Assignee: T-Mobile Innovations LLCInventors: Sharath Somashekar, Nitesh Manchanda, Vanil Parihar, Shruthi Ramakrishna

Patent number: 11284324Abstract: A Fifth Generation New Radio (5GNR) network serves User Equipment (UE) with low-latency Quality-of-Service (QoS). A source 5GNR node receives signaling from the UE and transfers the signaling to a network controller. The network controller processes the signaling to determine a low-latency QoS. A network gateway receives user data and transfers the user data to the source 5GNR node. The source 5GNR node wirelessly transfers the user data to the UE. Responsive to the low-latency QoS, the source 5GNR node transfers multicast signaling to the network controller when received signal strength at the UE reaches a multicast trigger. The network controller transfers multicast signaling to the network gateway. The network gateway multicasts the user data to the source 5GNR node and to neighbor 5GNR nodes.Type: GrantFiled: July 15, 2019Date of Patent: March 22, 2022Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Sharath Somashekar, Shruthi Ramakrishna, Nitesh Manchanda, Vanil Parihar

Patent number: 10470055Abstract: Embodiments of the invention include a system for reducing tropospheric ducting and tropospheric refraction in a wireless telecommunication network. A base station or network component receives weather information and determines if conditions are right for tropospheric ducting or tropospheric refraction. A simultaneous rise in UL interference, call failure rates, and call drop rates in adjacent markets can indicate tropospheric ducting. A rise in UL interference, call failure rates, and call drop rates by devices in one market can indicate tropospheric refraction. Where these UL interferences, call failure rates, and call drop rates occur daily for a similar duration each day, they are treated as being caused by tropospheric propagation and a mitigation routine is implemented through antenna down-tilt.Type: GrantFiled: June 25, 2018Date of Patent: November 5, 2019Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Sharath Somashekar, Ryan Patrick Dreiling, Sreekar Marupaduga, Rajveen Narendran, Walter Fred Rausch, Andrew M.

Patent number: 10050891Abstract: Exemplary embodiments described herein include systems, methods, and nodes for distributing relay wireless devices across an access node. Network identification numbers associated with at least two wireless devices may be determined. At an access node, a traffic class identifier and frequency band may be assigned to the at least two wireless devices, wherein each frequency band available for communication at the access node is assigned at most a maximum number of wireless devices comprising a network identification number that meets the criteria. Data may then be communicated between the access node and the at least two wireless devices according to the assigned traffic class identifiers and frequency bands, wherein the wireless devices comprise relay wireless devices that relay data between the access node and one or more small cells.Type: GrantFiled: August 12, 2016Date of Patent: August 14, 2018Assignee: Sprint Spectrum L.P.Inventors: Vanil Parihar, Nitesh Manchanda, Sreekar Marupaduga, Sharath Somashekar

Patent number: 9912316Abstract: A mechanical hub is provided. The mechanical hub is attachable to a cable and includes an outer shell and tiles. The outer shell surrounds the cable. The tiles are spaced to surround the circumference of the cable. The tiles may be positioned between the outer shell and the cable such that a translation of the outer shell alters the distance between the tiles and the cable. The mechanical hub may improve signals that are transmitted over segments of a cable that have degraded signal quality.Type: GrantFiled: March 1, 2016Date of Patent: March 6, 2018Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Sharath Somashekar, Nitesh Manchanda, Sreekar Marupaduga

Patent number: 9596687Abstract: A system, media, and method, for aperiodic antenna calibration triggering in a wireless network is provided. Following a calibration of an antenna, a recalibration of the antenna is triggered upon determining that a recalibration criterion is met. The determination is made based on monitoring a reported power level of a transmitted signal as measured by a stationary and/or mobile client device couple to the wireless network.Type: GrantFiled: July 24, 2014Date of Patent: March 14, 2017Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Nitesh Manchanda, Walter Fred Rausch, Sharath Somashekar, Xianghong Zeng

Patent number: 9543758Abstract: A method and system are provided for adjusting power distribution to remote radio heads in a telecommunication network. Multiple buses are implemented in a configuration to individually distribute power to remote radio heads. Each bus is connected to a remote radio heads allowing the remote radio head to receive power on an individual basis and different from other remote radio heads. An eNodeB collects operational measurements from a cell site which are used to provide instructions to adjust the power to each bus and corresponding remote radio head.Type: GrantFiled: November 22, 2013Date of Patent: January 10, 2017Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Nitesh Manchanda, Sreekar Marupaduga, Sharath Somashekar, Eugene S.

Patent number: 9037101Abstract: A remote radio head system (RRH) transmits first Radio-Frequency-signals (signals) at a first frequency-band (band) and second signals at a second band. The RRH receives and processes first control-data (data) to determine a first duty-cycle (cycle). In response to the first data and based on the first cycle, the RRH switches power between a first power amplifier system (PA) and a second PA and transmits the first signals at the first band through the first PA and transmits the second signals at the second band through the second PA. The RRH receives and processes second data to determine a second cycle. Responding to the second data and based on the second cycle, the RRH switches power between the first PA and the second PA and transmits the first signals at the first band through the first PA and transmits the second signals at the second band through the second PA.Type: GrantFiled: December 27, 2013Date of Patent: May 19, 2015Assignee: Sprint Communications Company L.P.Inventors: Sharath Somashekar, Cody Carl Heinrich, Mark Alan Wade, Xianghong Zeng
