A method and system for providing high availability of Fault Management (FM) microservice (MS) and Performance Management (PM) MS functionalities in a Radio Access Network (RAN) Network Function (NF). The method includes: determining whether there is an availability issue in a first microservice (MS), the first MS being one of an FM MS and a PM MS; based on determining that there is the availability issue, providing performance or event data, reported by at least one other MS of the NF for the first MS, to a second MS, the second MS being the other of the FM MS and the PM MS; and processing, by the second MS, the data and reporting, from the second MS to a northbound management system (NBMS), the processed data.

An apparatus executes firmware to verify a bootloader. The verified bootloader is caused to be executed to verify a kernel. In response to verifying the kernel, the kernel is caused to be executed to verify a trust agent. In response to verifying the trust agent, the trust agent is caused to process an application list to identify one or more files that are part of an application and to generate a hash for all of the one or more files combined or for each of the one or more files individually. The apparatus also compares the hash for all of the one or more files combined or for each of the one or more files individually with a hash included in an application manifest file and, in response to confirming a hash match, causes the one or more files that are part of the application to be executed.

A method includes causing files that are part of an application to be packaged to form an application package. During a packaging process, a hash calculator is caused to calculate a hash for the application package and a signing module is caused to generate an application manifest including the hash for the application package. The method also includes causing the application manifest to be added to the application package, causing firmware executed by a processor to verify a bootloader, and causing the bootloader to be executed to verify a kernel. The method also includes, causing the kernel to be executed to verify a trust agent, and causing the trust agent to process an application list to identify the one or more files that are part of the application included in the application package and generate a hash for the one or more files included in the application package.

A network device includes receiver and a processor. The receiver receives a signal from a group of terminal devices, over a physical uplink control channel (PUCCH) Format 0 (FMT0). The processor is coupled to the receiver, performs processing on the received signal to detect payloads and obtain SNRs corresponding to the terminal devices in the group, and utilizes the detected payloads and the SNRs for handling further communications with the terminal devices. In the processing, the processor obtains a time domain sequence from the received signal by performing a transform from a frequency domain into a time domain, determines a plurality of correlation power values from the time domain sequence, extracts, from the plurality of correlation power values, a maximum correlation power value corresponding to each terminal device, and determines a current noise power value for SNR based on an instant noise power value, and a previous noise power value.

A network system includes a non-transitory computer readable medium configured to store instructions thereon; and a processor. The processor is configured to execute the instructions for providing a first information element in a protocol, wherein the first information element is usable to configure parameters associated with convergence of packet data; providing a second information element within the first information element, wherein the second information element is usable for a first range of logical channels; and providing a third information element within the first information element, wherein the third information element is usable for a second range of logical channels outside of the first range of logical channels.

An apparatus includes a first processor; and a memory having instructions stored thereon that, when executed by the first processor, cause the apparatus to monitor a flow of data packets on a network plane. The apparatus is also caused to calculate a packet rate of the flow of the data packets. The apparatus is further caused to compare the packet rate with a first threshold value. The apparatus is additionally caused to, in response to determining the packet rate is less than the first threshold value, cause an operating state of a second processor communicatively coupled with the apparatus to change from an active state to a sleep state.

Self-healing of an application in a distributed architecture. A system manager microservice continuously updates state information of a plurality of microservices to a database. A health check microservice determines one or more down microservices from the plurality of microservices. An orchestration layer restarts the one or more down microservices. The system manager microservice generates updated states by performing an audit of state entries retrieved from the database based on a list of states obtained from a data store microservice to generate updated states for the plurality of microservices. Based on the audit of the database entries, the system manager microservice provides the updated states for the plurality of microservices to the database. Operation of the plurality of microservices is resumed based on the updated states for the plurality of microservices.

Systems and methods for handling and/or managing permissions data nodes across multiple NETCONF clients by generating or obtaining, by a NETCONF client, a first identifier, wherein the first identifier uniquely identifies the NETCONF client, establishing a first NETCONF session between a NETCONF server and the NETCONF client, wherein the NETCONF server comprises a first O-RU, wherein the NETCONF client comprises a first O-DU, delivering, from the NETCONF client to the NETCONF server, a first request during a NETCONF session handshake comprising the first identifier, delivering, from the NETCONF client to the NETCONF server, a first edit configuration request or payload, wherein the first edit configuration request or payload comprises the first identifier.

A network management system includes a non-transitory computer readable medium configured to store instructions thereon. The network management system further includes a processor connected to the non-transitory computer readable medium. The processor is configured to execute the instructions for receiving first log data from a first component in a network, wherein the first log data includes first log information; and parsing the first log data using a trained neural network to define parsed log data, wherein parsing the first log data includes organizing the first log information into a predefined sequence of information, and the parsed log data includes at least a signal source and a signal message. The processor is configured to execute the instructions for generating a unified model language (UML) diagram based on the parsed log data; and determining whether an error is present in the first component based on the UML diagram.

Techniques for selecting layers and ports for Multiple-Input-Multiple-Output (MIMO) beamforming are provided. In some implementations, the techniques may include receiving a plurality of Sounding Reference Signals (SRSs) transmitted by a plurality of SRS ports, each of the plurality of SRSs corresponding with a SRS port of a UE. In addition, the techniques may include measuring a Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) for each of the plurality of SRS ports, and estimating a wideband channel port correlation matrix across the plurality of SRS ports. The techniques may include setting a correlation threshold and a SNR threshold. Further, the techniques may include selecting one or more SRS ports from the plurality of SRS ports that satisfy a condition of being equal to or less than the correlation threshold and equal to or greater than the SNR threshold, where the layers correspond with a total number of SRS ports that satisfy the above condition.
