Abstract:
Systems are provided for managing a small cell telecommunication system servicing multiple network operators. In one aspect, a small cell telecommunication system can include management sub-system including a controller, multiple baseband processing units in communication with the controller, a transport module, and multiple remote antenna units. The controller can communicate with multiple core networks. Each core network is operated by a separate network operator for providing telecommunication services to terminal devices. Each of the baseband processing units can process data plane data and control plane data from at least one respective core network. The transport module can communicate signals between the baseband processing units and the remote antenna units of the small cell network. The management sub-system can provide a respective amount of capacity via the small cell network for each core network based on a respective subset of the baseband processing units assigned to the core network.

Claim (Index 1):
A management sub-system for managing a small cell network servicing a plurality of network operators the system comprising:\n a controller in communication with a plurality of core networks, wherein each of the plurality of core networks is operated by a separate network operator providing telecommunication services to terminal devices; and a plurality of baseband processing units in communication with the controller, wherein each of the plurality of baseband processing units is configured to process data from at least one respective core network of the plurality of core networks for distribution via a plurality of remote antenna units of the small cell network; wherein the plurality of remote antenna units are remotely located from the plurality of baseband processing units; wherein at least one of the plurality of remote antenna units is remotely located from at least one other remote antenna unit; wherein the management sub-system is configured for providing a respective amount of capacity via the small cell network for each core network of the plurality of core networks based on a respective subset of the plurality of baseband processing units assigned to the core network; and wherein the controller is configured to provide, independently for each network operator, (a) small cell and macro cell handover management and (b) small cell and macro cell interference management.
