Methods and apparatus for managing capacity in a Citizens Broadband Radio Service (CBRS) network. An exemplary method embodiment includes operating a Citizens Broadband Radio Service Device (CBSD) of a cell to perform the steps of: receiving a power down message; decreasing, in response to the power down message, UE inactivity timer length for one or more UEs from a first length to a second length; and continuing to transmit packets to UEs at an edge of the cell. An exemplary system embodiment includes: a CBSD of a cell that comprises: a network receiver that receives a power down message; a first processor that controls the first CBSD to decrease, in response to the power down message, UE inactivity timer length for one or more UEs from a first length to a second length; and a wireless transmitter that continues to transmit packets to UEs at an edge of the cell.

An anomaly detection and analysis system generates analysis or summary of the anomalies detected from key performance indicators (KPIs). The system receives anomaly data reporting anomalies detected in key performance indicator (KPI) data. The system classifies the reported anomalies into a plurality of anomaly items, wherein anomalies from KPI data that share a set of features are assigned to one anomaly item. The system computes a ranking score for each anomaly item by assigning predefined weights for different anomaly types that are present in the anomaly item. The system sorts a list of anomaly items from the plurality of anomaly items into a sorted list of anomaly items according to the ranking scores computed for the plurality of anomaly items. The system sends the sorted list of anomaly items to a user device for presentation.

A network environment includes a first station, a second station, and a communication manager. The communication manager monitors a backhaul between the first station and the second station. In one arrangement, the first station is a wireless access point providing wireless connectivity to multiple mobile communication devices. During operation, the backhaul conveys communications between the first station and the second station. Based on the monitoring, the communication manager produces a metric indicating an ability of the backhaul to convey communications. Based on the metric, the communication manager determines a split of multiple processing layers in a wireless protocol stack. To accommodate the split, the communication manager assigns a first portion of multiple network communication layers to the first station for processing and a second portion of the multiple network communication layers to the second station for processing.

An online learning-based smart steering system and method comprises an online kernel perceptron classifier. The smart steering approach/method performs learning sequentially at the cloud from the entire data of multiple mesh networks, and, operates at APs for steering; both of which are executed in real-time. The system and method uses network features such as current RSSI (received signal strength indicator), current cost, target RSSI and target cost for every steering action resulting in either success of failure. The system and method uses a classifier based on this data for obtaining a model in the feature space which predicts whether a steering action can succeed or not before it is issued.

Systems, methods, and processing nodes for selecting a donor access node for a relay node comprising a plurality of directional antennae include instructing the relay node to attach to a first preferred donor access node using a first antenna of the plurality of directional antennae. While maintaining the connection with the first preferred donor access node using the first antenna, the relay node can scan for potential donor access nodes using one or more remaining antennae of the plurality of directional antennae and, upon identifying a second preferred donor access node from the potential donor access nodes, to perform a handover from the first preferred donor access node to the second preferred donor access node.
