Abstract

See full text

Systems and methods for Software Defined Networking (SDN) orchestration of antennas and frequencies in a heterogeneous Radio Access Network (RAN) include maintaining status of a plurality of devices connected to the heterogeneous RAN; determining whether to upgrade connections of a first subset of the plurality of devices; determining whether to downgrade connections of a second subset of the plurality of devices; and providing instructions to the heterogeneous RAN for the first subset and the second subset. The systems and methods enable enforcement of business-aware prioritization on the heterogeneous RAN.
