Abstract

A system includes one or more antennas; and a processor to control a directionality of the antennas in communication with a predetermined target using 5G protocols.

Claims (31)

1. A method of communicating data with a user equipment (UE), comprising:

receiving a signal from the UE coupled to the or more steerable antenna beams from one or more antennas at a communication station;

determining a location direction of the UE using said signal;

generating digital beam forming coefficients to transmit from one of said steerable antenna beams in said location direction of the UE;

tracking said location direction of said UE as said communication station and said UE movement relative to other UEs;

adjusting said beam forming coefficients associated with one transmit steerable antenna beam to improve a signal quality of communication signal received at said communication station and changing the beams according to load, usage and time of day; and

routing or delivering internet data to devices coupled to the UE and wherein the routing or delivering data.

2. The method of claim 1 , comprising mounting one or more antennas on a pole, a tower, or a shipping container and directionally aiming the antennas from the pole, tower, or shipping container.

3. The method of claim 1 , comprising remapping the beams to avoid obstructions or issues that affect 5G/6G transmissions.

4. The method of claim 1 , comprising providing fixed wireless access with the UE.

5. The method of claim 1 , comprising scanning and optimizing radio communication with a target client or device by a surface.

6. The method of claim 1 , comprising using an array of actuators or antennas, each antenna is independently steerable to optimize 5G transmission.

7. The method of claim 1 , comprising sending game data or sending augmented, virtual or extended reality data from the UE.

8. The method of claim 1 , comprising focusing SG signals to the target client or device with iterative changes in an orientation of the antenna by changing a housing location based on one or more predetermined criteria.

9. The method of claim 1 , comprising using an array antenna onboard a cell tower with a digital beam former (DBF), said array antenna having a plurality of actuators moving RF radiating elements for providing steerable antenna beams within an antenna footprint region, said DBF providing for each radiating element, beam forming coefficients for controlling characteristics of said steerable antenna beams.

10. A system, comprising:

a mobile housing including at least a pole, a tower, or a shipping container to receive a signal from one or more predetermined targets;

one or more antennas to focus on one or more predetermined targets by generating coefficients to transmit data from one or more steerable antenna beams in the location direction of the one or more predetermined targets;

one or more millimeter wave transceivers coupled to the one or more antennas;

a processor to control the one or more transceivers and one or more antennas in communication with the predetermined target using 5G protocols upon determining a location direction of the one or more predetermined targets and change beams according to load, usage and time of day; and

a thermal management unit coupled to the processor and the one or more transceivers or power amplifiers; and

an electromagnetic shielding unit in at least one of the one or more predetermined targets to protect a user from wireless radiation.

11. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor calibrates a radio link between a transceiver and a client device.

12. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor is coupled to fiber optics cable to communicate with a cloud-based radio access network (RAN) or a remote RAN.

13. The system of claim 10 , comprising a camera for individual identity identification.

14. The system of claim 10 , wherein the processor analyzes walking gaits and facial features for identity identification.

15. The system of claim 10 , comprising a game device or an augmented, virtual or extended reality device coupled to the one or more transceivers.

16. The system of claim 10 , comprising an edge processor to provide local edge processing for Internet-of-Things (IOT) sensors.

17. The system of claim 10 , wherein one of the antennas changes shape or curve on processor command.

18. The system of claim 10 , comprising a cellular device for a person crossing a street near a city light or street light, the cellular device emitting a person to vehicle (P2V) or a vehicle to person (V2P) safety message.

19. The system of claim 10 , comprising a neural network whose network parameters are reduced before transfer to an edge neural network.
