Abstract: An edge device includes an antenna array and a sensor that senses a surrounding area of the edge device. The edge device further includes control circuitry that detects a first user in the surrounding area of the edge device sensed by the sensor, tracks the detected first user in the surrounding area of the edge device based on the sensor, controls the first antenna array to direct a first beam of radio frequency (RF) signal in a first direction of the tracked first user, detects and tracks a second user concurrently with the first user in the surrounding area of the first edge device based on the sensor, and updates the control of the first antenna array to direct a second beam of RF signal in a second direction towards the second user concomitant to the directed first beam of RF signal in the first direction towards the first user.

Abstract: A communication system includes a first inference server that obtains subset of information from a connectivity enhanced database of a central cloud server based on a geographical zone served by the first inference server. The first inference server receives a real-time or a near real-time request from a road-side unit (RSU) device within the geographical zone, where the request includes input features corresponding to sensing information from a vehicle. Based on the sensing information, the first inference server further causes a first edge device on the vehicle to connect to the RSU device to perform uplink and downlink communication with high throughput without any interruptions. Further, the first inference server obtains updated sensing information from the first edge device and communicates updated initial access information to the first edge device directly or via the RSU device to maintain a connectivity of the first edge device to a base station.

Abstract: A communication system includes a central cloud server and a processor that periodically obtains sensing information from an edge device that is in motion at a travel path. The processor predicts formed whether an existing cellular connectivity of the edge device is about to become less than a threshold performance value, based on the obtained sensing information. If the existing cellular connectivity of the edge device is about to become less than the threshold performance value, an alternative wireless connectivity option is triggered at the edge device bypassing an initial access-search at the edge device to maintain the cellular connectivity.

Abstract: A communication system includes a central cloud server to establish a primary communication path between a radio access network (RAN) node and one or more user equipment (UEs) via a first set of edge devices of a plurality of edge devices, where each edge device is configured as a mesh node of a mesh network. The central cloud server determines a plurality of secondary communication paths between the RAN node and the one or more UEs via different sets of edge devices. The central cloud server ranks each of the plurality of secondary communication paths in terms of one or more signal quality parameters and controls switching from the primary communication path to one or more secondary communication paths configured as backup communication paths within a threshold time to maintain a continuity in service to the one or more UEs for uplink and downlink communication.

Abstract: A communication system includes an edge device that communicates a plurality of sensed parameters to a central cloud server, where the plurality of sensed parameters are associated with the donor antenna array and the one or more relay antenna arrays. The edge device obtains a plurality of path setup parameters specific for the edge device from the central cloud server in response to the communicated plurality of sensed parameters. The edge device further establishes, via the donor antenna array, a communication link to an upstream neighboring node of a plurality of neighboring nodes based on the obtained plurality of path setup parameters. The edge device further establishes, via the one or more relay antenna arrays, one or more communication links to one or more downstream neighboring nodes of the plurality of neighboring nodes based on the obtained plurality of path setup parameters.

Abstract: An edge device includes a first antenna array and control circuitry that activates a sensing function to sense a surrounding area of the edge device and generates a 3D environment representation of the surrounding area of the edge device. The control circuitry recognizes a first user equipment (UE) in motion to be a valid device to receive one or more services from the edge device and track a position of the first UE in motion from the edge device. The control circuitry executes beamforming to direct a first beam of RF signal having a signal strength greater than a threshold to the first UE in motion that is recognized as the valid device, based on the track of the position of the first UE and the generated 3D environment representation for high-performance communication.

Abstract: A communication system includes a central cloud server that generates a connectivity enhanced database based on a correlation among sensing information obtained from a plurality of vehicles, processing chain parameters obtained from donor side of each edge device of the plurality of vehicles, and position information of one or more network nodes. One or more RSU devices of the communication system are caused to direct one or more specific beams of RF signals to service donor side of a first edge device of a new vehicle when the new vehicle arrives and moves along a first travel path and when the new vehicle is designated as a known user. The one or more specific beams are selected based on the connectivity enhanced database bypassing an initial access-search on the first edge device of the new vehicle as well as the one or more RSU devices.

The edge device receives two or more time division duplex (TDD) patterns from two or more base stations of different service providers, finds a common TDD pattern for the received two or more TDD patterns, and follows the common TDD pattern for switching RF signals between different WCNs of different service providers for uplink and downlink communication.

Abstract: A road-side unit (RSU) device receives a first request from a vehicle that moves along a travel path. The vehicle includes an edge device. A second request is communicated to an inference server based on the received first request. The second request includes an input feature corresponding to sensing information of the vehicle. A response is received from the inference server based on the communicated second request. The response includes wireless connectivity enhanced information including specific initial access information, and the specific initial access information enables the RSU devices to bypass an initial access search on the RSU device, and direct at least one specific beam of radio frequency (RF) signal to the edge device of the vehicle based on the wireless connectivity enhanced information.
