Abstract
Methods, systems, and access nodes associate a corresponding unique code with multiple access nodes and multiplex data with each of the corresponding unique codes. Further, the multiplexed data is transmitted from each of the multiple access nodes to a donor node. At the donor node, a unique donor code is assigned and is multiplexed with the donor node data. The multiplexed data from the multiple access nodes and the multiplexed donor node data are transmitted in parallel from the donor node to a core network.
Claims20
A method comprising:
- associating a corresponding unique code with multiple access nodes;
- multiplexing data with each of the corresponding unique codes;
- transmitting the multiplexed data from each of the multiple access nodes to a donor node;
- assigning a unique donor code at the donor node;
- multiplexing the unique donor code with donor node data;
- and
- transmitting the multiplexed data from the multiple access nodes and the
- multiplexed donor node data in parallel from the donor node to a core network.
An access node comprising:
- at least one processor programmed to perform multiple operations, the operations including;
- associating a corresponding unique code with multiple access nodes;
- receiving data in parallel from each of the multiple access nodes, the data multiplexed with the corresponding unique code for each of the multiple access nodes;
- and
- transmitting, in parallel, the multiplexed data from the multiple access nodes from the access node to a core network.
A method for minimizing latency, the method comprising:
- associating a corresponding unique code with multiple access nodes utilizing integrated backhaul access (IAB) technology;
- transmitting data in parallel from each of the multiple access nodes to a donor node, the data multiplexed with the corresponding unique code for each of the multiple access nodes;
- and
- recognizing a data source at the donor node based on the corresponding unique
- code multiplexed with the data.
