Abstract:
Enabling a changing of a state of a device based on a hierarchical class of the device is disclosed. Non-macro radio access network (RAN) devices can be comprised in a network connected to a macro RAN device via a gateway RAN device. The gateway RAN device can be connected to a field RAN device via an intermediate RAN device. A state of a field RAN device can be altered based on a criterion. In an embodiment the criterion can be use of the hierarchical class of the RAN device, e.g., a field class RAN device, by an active or idle UE. In an embodiment the criterion can be use, by an active or idle UE, of another RAN device that is a logical neighbor to the field RAN device. Altering the state can result in a power savings or improved interference characteristics of the network.

Claim (Index 18):
A non-transitory computer readable medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitates performance of operations, comprising:\n determining that a mode of a first radio access network device is:\n not a gateway mode associated with a first neighbor relationship between the first radio access network device and a macro radio access network device, and \n not an intermediate mode associated with a second neighbor relationship between the first radio access network device and a gateway radio access network device that has a third neighbor relationship with the macro radio access network device; \n determining a count comprising a first number of idle state user equipments and a second number of active state user equipments, wherein the first number of idle state user equipments is affiliated with the first radio access network device and first neighbors of the first radio access network device, and wherein the second number of active state user equipments is affiliated with the first radio access network device and the first neighbors of the first radio access network device; and transitioning a state of the first radio access network device based on the mode and the count, wherein the state transitions from a first state of the first radio access network device to a second state of the first radio access network device.
