TRANSLATING COMMANDS FOR LEGACY RADIO ACCESS NETWORK - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 17827032 titled 'TRANSLATING COMMANDS FOR LEGACY RADIO ACCESS NETWORK

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a method for modifying settings of a legacy Radio Access Network (RAN) using a RAN intelligent controller framework.

  • The method allows modification of settings of a legacy RAN through a command received from an application executing on the RAN intelligent controller framework.
  • The command is translated into a set of API calls to an element management system (EMS) responsible for managing the legacy RAN.
  • The API calls are sent to the EMS to modify the desired settings of the legacy RAN.


Original Abstract Submitted

Some embodiments provide a method for modifying settings of a legacy RAN at a first application executing on a RAN intelligent controller (MC) framework. From a second application executing on the MC framework, the method receives a command to modify at least one setting of the legacy RAN. The method translates the command into a set of one or more API calls to an element management system (EMS) for the legacy RAN. the method sends the API calls to the EMS in order to cause the EMS to modify the at least one setting of the legacy RAN.
