Abstract

Facilitating adaptive power spectral density with chromatic spectrum optimization in advanced networks (e.g., 5G, 6G, and beyond) is provided herein. Operations of a method can comprise evaluating, by a system comprising a processor, a capture rate of mobile devices within a radio access network. The capture rate is representative of a quantity of mobile devices using a millimeter wave spectrum of the radio access network. The method also can comprise facilitating, by the system, an adjustment to a power spectral density of the radio access network based on a determination that the capture rate fails to satisfy a target capture rate of mobile devices using the millimeter wave spectrum.

Claims (52)

1. A method, comprising:

determining, by network equipment comprising a processor, that a radio link failure rate for user equipment satisfies a defined failure threshold, wherein the user equipment utilize a millimeter wave spectrum for communication;

based on a first determination that a bandwidth level satisfies a defined bandwidth level and a second determination that a power spectral density level satisfies a defined density level, increasing, by the network equipment, the bandwidth level; and

based on a third determination that the bandwidth level fails to satisfy the defined bandwidth level and a fourth determination that the power spectral density level fails to satisfy the defined density level, converting, by the network equipment, a carrier of a radio access network to a downlink only carrier.

2. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

based on the bandwidth level satisfying the defined bandwidth level and the power spectral density level satisfying the defined density level, retuning, by the network equipment, a center channel for reduced neighbor spectral overlap.

3. The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

updating, by the network equipment, respective neighbor lists of the user equipment based on the retuning; and

retaining, by the network equipment, a result of the increasing of the bandwidth level in a data store as historical reference information.

4. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

evaluating, by the network equipment, a result of the increasing of the bandwidth level; and

based on the result being determined to be below a defined result level, reverting, by the network equipment, to a baseline parameter configuration.

5. The method of claim 4 , further comprising:

retaining, by the network equipment, the result in a data store as historical reference information for subsequent evaluation.

6. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

evaluating, by the network equipment, a result of the converting of the carrier; and

based on the result being determined to be below a defined result level, reverting, by the network equipment, to a baseline parameter configuration.

7. The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

retaining, by the network equipment, a result of the converting of the carrier in a data store as historical reference information.

8. The method of claim 1 , wherein the increasing comprises reducing the power spectral density level.

9. The method of claim 1 , wherein the network equipment is configured to operate according to a fifth generation communication protocol.

10. A system, comprising:

a processor; and

a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:

determining that a radio link failure rate for user equipment satisfies a defined failure threshold level;

based on a first determination that a bandwidth level satisfies a defined bandwidth level and a second determination that a power spectral density level satisfies a defined density level, increasing the bandwidth level; and

based on a third determination that the bandwidth level fails to satisfy the defined bandwidth level and a fourth determination that the power spectral density level fails to satisfy the defined density level, converting a carrier, enabled via a radio access network, to a downlink only carrier.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprise:

after the increasing, retuning a channel for minimal neighbor spectral overlap;

updating respective neighbor lists of the user equipment based on the retuning; and

retaining a result in a data store as historical reference information.

12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprise:

evaluating a result of the increasing of the bandwidth level; and

based on the result being determined to be below a defined result level, decreasing the bandwidth level to a previous level.

13. The system of claim 10 , wherein the operations further comprise:

evaluating a result of the converting of the carrier; and

based on the result being determined to be below a defined result level, reversing a conversion of the radio access network to the downlink only carrier.

monitoring a radio link failure rate associated with user equipment connecting via a radio access network, wherein the user equipment are determined to be utilizing a millimeter wave spectrum associated with the radio access network; and

based on a determination that the radio link failure rate is above a threshold level and an evaluation of a bandwidth level and a power spectral density level of the radio access network, performing an operation of a group of operations, the group of operations comprising:

reducing the power spectral density level of the radio access network based on increasing the bandwidth level of the radio access network; and
