A recently granted patent (Publication Number: US11882482B2) discloses a method for managing communication traffic in a Cloud Radio Access Network (CRAN)-compatible system. The method involves directing communication traffic from different sectors of specified cell sites to specific virtual machines or servers using a Top of Rack switch. The communication traffic is then aggregated within the virtual machines or servers based on the type of traffic load profile, with the aim of optimizing network performance and resource utilization.

Furthermore, the patent details additional steps such as mapping component carriers within different sectors of cell sites to the virtual machines or servers, analyzing communication traffic distribution and loads across multiple cell sites using an analytics engine, and dynamically adjusting the mapping of cell sites to virtual machines or servers based on real-time traffic conditions. The method also highlights the use of spare capacity in virtual machines or servers during low-load conditions to handle non-real-time workloads efficiently. The patent emphasizes the application of this method in CRAN networks, particularly in Open RAN based networks, with the analytics engine playing a crucial role in optimizing network performance and meeting service level agreements.
