A machine learning method performed by a communication network monitoring device in which an incoming signaling record is received that includes radio signal attributes from a UE in the cellular communication network. A determination is made as to whether the UE incoming signaling record contains location (GPS) data. If the UE incoming signaling record contains GPS data, a machine learning model is generated for determining a location of future UEs in the communication network utilizing the GPS data and the radio signal attributes from the incoming UE signaling record. And if GPS data is not included in the UE incoming signaling record, then the geolocation for the UE is predicted using machine learning techniques utilizing a previous generated machine learning model as applied to the radio signal attributes from the incoming UE signaling record.

A wireless device in an unlicensed band receives from a base station a request signal requesting initiation of downlink (DL) transmission. If carrier sensing (CS) is performed and a wireless medium idles, the wireless device transmits to the base station a response signal accepting the initiation of the DL transmission. The CS is performed with respect to a receive (RX) beam direction obtained from the request signal.

A Radio Access Network (RAN) wirelessly serves a User Equipment (UE) over a frequency channel based on a radio signal metric. The RAN comprises baseband circuitry and a radio. The baseband circuitry determines when multiple Physical Cell Identifiers (PCIs) are available to serve the UE. In response, the baseband circuitry selects some resource blocks in the frequency channel and generates a UE instruction to measure the radio signal metric for the selected resource blocks. The radio receives the UE instruction for the baseband circuitry and wirelessly transfers the UE instruction to the UE. The radio wirelessly receives a measurement report from the UE that indicates the radio signal metric for the selected resource blocks. The radio transfers the measurement report to the baseband circuitry. The baseband circuitry receives the measurement report and responsively schedules the UE in the selected resource blocks based on the radio signal metric.
