Systems and methods for distributed unit handover

A system described herein may provide a technique for the handover of a User Equipment (“UE”) from a first Distributed Unit (“DU”) of a wireless network to a second DU in a manner that minimizes or interruption of the delivery of traffic to the UE. When the UE is attached to a first DU, one or more second DUs may be identified as candidates for attachment to the UE. The one or more second DUs may be pre-loaded with context information and/or traffic for the UE. In some embodiments, a third mesh DU (“MDU”) may be identified as a candidate for attachment to a first MDU that is attached to a second MDU. The third MDU may be pre-loaded with context information and/or traffic for the first MDU.

In the present disclosure, a plurality of types of data are received from a base station and these pieces of data are learned, whereby a first model capable of calculating an estimated value of an index indicating an operation status of the base station is generated. Then this estimated value is compared to a measured value of the index indicating the operation status of the base station.

Time sensitive communications between user equipment

Disclosed are systems, methods, integrated circuits and computer readable storage media for configuring time sensitive communications (TSC). The configuring of the TSC includes monitoring, by a user plane function (UPF), a source and destination of packets in a first protocol data unit (PDU) session of a first user equipment (UE) and in a second PDU session of a second UE, pairing a first device side TSN translator (DS-TT) port of the first UE with a second DS-TT port of the second UE when the first PDU session and the second PDU session are served by the same UPF, wherein the pairing is based on the monitoring of the first and second PDU sessions and when the first DS-TT and second DS-TT ports are paired, communicating the packets between the first UE and the second UE in a UE-UE communication without traversing the TSN.

A first mobile terminal testing device 1 including plurality of pseudo base station units 12-0, 12-1 operating as LTE base stations of NSA, and second mobile terminal testing device 2 operating as 5G NR base stations of NSA are provided. Each of the pseudo base station units 12-0, 12-1 is associated with the second mobile terminal testing devices 2, 2. The second mobile terminal testing device 2 generates a 5G NR control signal when testing a mobile terminal 3 which supports for NSA. The generated 5G NR control signal is transmitted to the first mobile terminal testing device 1. The first mobile terminal testing device 1 transmits the received 5G NR control signal to the mobile terminal 3 by the LTE control signal using the pseudo base station unit 12 corresponding to the second mobile terminal testing device 2 which transmits the control signal.
