A Shared Cell (SC) Controller uses deployment information, radio resource utilization measurements, cell load measurements, signal quality measurement, operator's policies and radio capabilities to make decisions on system configuration, re-configuration, and channel allocation related to the Shared Cell groups. The SC Controller may also use artificial intelligence/machine learning to predict future system state when making decisions on system configuration and channel allocation. The SC Controller can be implemented in the context of using a CBRS system, the ORAN architecture, and the Shared Cell group of Radio Units (RUs). SC Controller can be implemented as part of the Non-Real Time Radio Intelligent Controller (Non-RT RIC). The SC Controller interfaces with the Citizens Broadband Radio Service Device (CBSD) Controller, and the SC Controller sends the Shared Cell group information to the O-RU Controller so that the O-RU Controller can configure the radio components.

Apparatuses, methods, and systems for connecting a wireless hub across multiple wireless networks are disclosed. One system includes a state machine and a router. The state machine operates to maintain a network availability of each of a plurality of wireless networks for a hub, wherein each of the plurality of wireless networks include network characteristics, wherein the network characteristics include at least IP and non-IP protocols, satellite and non-satellite communication channels, and a connection status. The router operative to select a one of the plurality of wireless networks based on the network availability and the network characteristics as maintained by the state machine, process data packets according to the selected available wireless network based on the network characteristics of the selected available wireless network, and route the processed data packets to the hub through the selected one of the plurality of wireless networks.

A transmission method makes it possible to transmit data from a first node device to a second node device belonging to a network neighbourhood of the first node device, the first and second node devices belonging to an electrical supply network. These nodes are configured for transmitting the data by powerline and by radio frequency. The method comprises the following steps performed by the first node device: distributing the data in two groups of data by an operation of interlacing the data, each group being associated with a communication medium from powerline and radio frequency, and transmitting each data item to a MAC layer of the communication medium associated with the group to which the data item belongs.

A transmission method for transmitting a fragment of an IP packet from a first node device to a third node device through a second node device. The first and second node devices are configured for communicating by powerline and by radio frequency. The second and third node devices can communicate only using a single communication medium from powerline and radio frequency. A first fragment sent by said first node device either by powerline or by radio frequency is received. An acknowledgement message is sent by to said first node device using a second communication medium selected from powerline and radio frequency so that it is different from said single medium. Then said first fragment is transmitted to said third node device using said single communication medium.
