Abstract

A system includes a distributed ledger storing one or more smart contracts; one or more 5G small cells, each having one or more antennas mounted on a housing, each small cell sending packets of data trackable with the distributed ledger; and a processor to control a directionality of the antennas in communication with a predetermined target using 5G protocols.

Claims (30)

1. A system, comprising:

a mobile device using 5G protocols to access a blockchain or a distributed ledger storing one or more smart contracts, the mobile device including an identity code for fraud detection or fraud prevention on the mobile device, and the mobile device is adapted to communicate with one or more 5G small cells, each having one or more antennas mounted on a housing, each small cell sending packets of data for the distributed ledger, wherein one of the smart contracts provides access to a service from another machine; and

a processor to process blockchain data received from the antennas in communication with the mobile device using 5G protocols.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor is coupled to a pay code or a micropayment code.

3. The system of claim 1 , comprising a remote processor coupled to fiber optics cable to communicate with a cloud-based radio access network (RAN), a virtual RAN, or a remote RAN.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the smart contract comprises a blockchain coin, token, or payment representation.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the smart contract provided by the predetermined target to access the 5G small cell to discover a wireless access network.

6. The system of claim 5 , wherein the smart contract specifies predetermined rules or tokens to pay for data exchange or for network access.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the distributed ledger refers to a Bitcoin, an Ethereum token, a rent token, or a money token.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein the distributed ledger stores location data of the small cell and the predetermined target obtains the location of the small cell.

9. The system of claim 1 , comprising code to store healthcare data on the distributed ledger.

10. The system of claim 1 , wherein processor focuses 5G signals to the target with iterative changes in orientations of the antennas by changing a curvature or a shape of the surface to meet predetermined criteria.

11. The system of claim 1 , comprising a neural network accessing the blockchain to perform blockchain processing, communication, or operation.

12. The system of claim 1 , comprising one or more cameras and sensors in a housing to capture security information and wherein the housing is a drop-in replacement for an existing housing to upgrade existing lights and add 5G or 6G active antennas.

13. The system of claim 1 , comprising a distributed application (DApp) for data stored on the blockchain.

14. The system of claim 1 , wherein the processor analyzes sound, walking gaits, or facial features.

15. The system of claim 1 , comprising an edge learning machine that uses pre-trained models and modifies the pre-trained models for a selected task.

16. The system of claim 1 , comprising a down-sampled edge neural network.

17. A system, comprising:

a mobile device using 5G protocols to access a blockchain or a distributed ledger storing one or more smart contracts, the mobile device including an identity code for fraud detection or fraud prevention on the mobile device, and the mobile device is adapted to communicate with one or more 5G small cells, each having one or more antennas mounted on a housing, each small cell sending packets of data for the distributed ledger;

a processor to process blockchain data received from the antennas in communication with the mobile device using 5G protocols; and

a data producer with predetermined data that advertises on the blockchain the type of data available and price.

18. A system, comprising:

a mobile device using 5G protocols to access a blockchain or a distributed ledger storing one or more smart contracts, the mobile device including an identity code for fraud detection or fraud prevention on the mobile device, and the mobile device is adapted to communicate with one or more 5G small cells, each having one or more antennas mounted on a housing, each small cell sending packets of data for the distributed ledger; and

a processor to process blockchain data received from the antennas in communication with the mobile device using 5G protocols, wherein the processor applies insurance analysis code based on one or more mobile sensor outputs.

19. A system, comprising:

a mobile device using 5G protocols to access a blockchain or a distributed ledger storing one or more smart contracts, the mobile device including an identity code for fraud detection or fraud prevention on the mobile device, and the mobile device is adapted to communicate with one or more 5G small cells, each having one or more antennas mounted on a housing, each small cell sending packets of data for the distributed ledger; and

a processor to process blockchain data received from the antennas in communication with the mobile device using 5G protocols; and

an edge learning machine in the housing to provide local edge processing.

20. The system of claim 19 , wherein one of the smart contracts comprises a distributed application (DApp), a blockchain coin, a token, a digital currency, a crypto-currency, a micropayment, or a payment representation.
