Abstract:
1. Non-transitory computer-readable media having computer-executable instructions embodied thereon that, when executed by one or more computing devices, cause the one or more computing devices to perform operations comprising: continuously measuring, in an asymmetric network without on-path support, an anchor path delay; determining a maximum standard allowable (MSA) delay variation for a cluster, the cluster comprising at least one unanchored small cell site; continuously measuring a respective round trip (RT) delay from a host site to each unanchored small cell site of the at least one unanchored small cell site in the cluster; comparing the anchor path delay to each respective RT delay to determine a respective unanchored delay variation; and removing any unanchored small cell site from the cluster whose respective unanchored delay variation exceeds the MSA delay variation.
