Abstract

Claims (44)

1. A system for dynamic spectrum utilization management in an electromagnetic environment comprising:

a user equipment (UE) including a sensor operable to analyze the electromagnetic environment;

a Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) layer in a network slice, wherein the MEC layer is in communication with a radio access network (RAN);

wherein the MEC layer includes a Distributed Autonomous Slice Management (DASMO) architecture including a Slice Manager (SM) operable to support tenant-oriented operations and interfaces; and

a tip and cue server;

wherein the tip and cue server is connected to the MEC layer;

wherein the UE is connected to the RAN via 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) protocols;

a wireless network resource optimization application in the MEC layer, wherein the wireless network resource optimization application includes a programmable rules and policy editor;

wherein the programmable rules and policy editor includes at least one rule and/or at least one policy;

wherein the wireless network resource optimization application is operable to use analyzed data from the UE to create actionable data for optimizing network resources; and

wherein the tip and cue server is operable to provide at least one report based on the at least one rule and/or the at least one policy.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the UE includes a smartphone, a mobile device, a tablet, a computer, a router, and/or an internet of things (IoT) device.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the SM is operable to provide key performance indicator (KPI) monitoring and reporting and/or configuration support.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the network resources are optimized by changing at least one parameter of one or more customer devices and/or applications.

5. The system of claim 1 , wherein the network resources are optimized by changing at least one parameter of the UE.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the MEC layer is operable to determine a location of the UE.

7. The system of claim 6 , wherein the location of the UE is operable to be transmitted to the RAN.

8. A system for dynamic spectrum utilization management in an electromagnetic environment comprising:

a user equipment (UE) including a sensor operable to analyze the electromagnetic environment;

a wireless network resource optimization application in a Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) layer, wherein the wireless network resource optimization application is in communication with a radio access network (RAN);

wherein the MEC layer includes a Distributed Autonomous Slice Management (DASMO) architecture operable to provide key performance indicator (KPI) monitoring and reporting and/or configuration support; and

a tip and cue server;

wherein the tip and cue server is connected to the wireless network resource optimization application;

wherein the UE is connected to the RAN via 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) protocols;

wherein the wireless network resource optimization application includes a programmable rules and policy editor;

wherein the programmable rules and policy editor includes at least one rule and/or at least one policy;

wherein the wireless network resource optimization application is operable to use analyzed data from the UE to create actionable data for optimizing network resources; and

wherein the tip and cue server is operable to provide at least one report based on the at least one rule and/or the at least one policy.

9. The system of claim 8 , wherein the UE includes a smartphone, a mobile device, a tablet, a computer, a router, and/or an internet of things (IoT) device.

10. The system of claim 8 , wherein the RAN is operable to receive a location of the UE.

11. A method for dynamic spectrum utilization management in an electromagnetic environment comprising:

a user equipment (UE) including a sensor analyzing the electromagnetic environment;

a wireless network resource optimization application in a Multi-Access Edge Computing (MEC) layer using analyzed data from the UE to create actionable data for optimizing network resources;

wherein the wireless network resource optimization application includes a programmable rules and policy editor;

wherein the programmable rules and policy editor includes at least one rule and/or at least one policy;

a tip and cue server providing at least one report based on the at least one rule and/or the at least one policy;

wherein the MEC layer is in a network slice, wherein the MEC layer is in communication with a radio access network (RAN);

wherein the MEC layer includes a Distributed Autonomous Slice Management (DASMO) architecture operable to provide key performance indicator (KPI) monitoring and reporting; and

wherein the tip and cue server is connected to the MEC layer; and

wherein the UE is connected to the RAN via 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) protocols.

12. The method of claim 11 , wherein the UE includes a smartphone, a mobile device, a tablet, a computer, a router, and/or an internet of things (IoT) device.

13. The method of claim 11 , further comprising the MEC layer determining a location of the UE.
