A communications system may include mobile communications nodes operating according to a current topology and reconfigurable to a new topology. Each mobile communications node may include a wireless transceiver, and a controller configured to transmit spectral performance data to adjacent nodes and receive spectral performance data from the adjacent nodes. The controller may identify potential topologies for the adjacent nodes based on the spectral performance data, select a subset of potential topologies from among the potential topologies, generate a respective performance score for each potential topology of the subset of potential topologies, and switch to a new topology from among the subset of potential topologies based upon the performance scores.

Handover coordination for large area coverage

A method for performing a handover operation includes using one or more processors of a non-terrestrial node to initiate communication with a first terrestrial node of a network, the terrestrial node having a first unique node identifier and a cell identifier and store a mapping that associates the first unique node identifier with the cell identifier. The method also includes using the one or more processors to receive an indicator that the mapping is subject to change and update the mapping to associate a second unique node identifier of a second terrestrial node of the network with the cell identifier based on the received indicator.

Micro-navigation for a vehicle

A system and method for micro-navigation of a mobile object (1000) is disclosed herein. Micro-navigation provides guidance to destinations that are not normally found on maps or in navigation systems. In one micro-navigation method, data is collected (1501) related to route transit to specific end points that are not typically mapped. The end points are identified (1502) by relating specific geo coordinates, or physical landmark based characteristics, or electronically described and defined end point to a an identification that will be entered and stored in a location database. Guidance (1503) is provided to vehicles traveling to those end points or destinations, with additional information relevant to a route and/or a specific vehicle and configuration updated and made available to the system.

Enhanced network connectivity for a connected car and onboard user equipment

A connected car and an onboard user equipment (UE) may establish independent cellular connections and may also establish a connection between each other. The UE establishes a first cellular link between the UE and a first network, establishes a connection with a connected car, wherein the connected car has a second cellular link between the connected car and a second network, evaluates one or more conditions and declares one of the first cellular link or the connection with the connected car a primary network interface for the UE based on, at least, the one or more conditions.

Cellular telecommunications network

The invention relates to a method in a cellular telecommunications network, the method including discovering a second donor base station having a first interface for communicating with the first central base station unit and a second interface for wirelessly communicating with the distributed base station unit; determining a capacity of a connection between the central base station unit and the distributed base station unit via the second donor base station; determining that the capacity of the connection satisfies a functional split threshold; and, in response to this determination, causing the centralized base station unit and the distributed base station unit to implement a second functional split in which a third set of protocol functions are implemented in the distributed base station unit and a fourth set of protocol functions are implemented in the central base station unit; and initiating a handover of the distributed base station unit from the first donor base station to the second donor base station.

Interworking system and operation in V2X applications

A communication system and method for supporting a plurality of vehicle-to-everything radio access technologies (V2X RATs) is provided. The communication system configured to support multiple V2X RATs transmits, using a first V2X RAT, an indication of its availability to support an interworking function between the plurality of V2X RATs.
