Cooperative radio access network with centralized base station baseband unit (BBU) processing pool
Embodiments of an enhanced Node B (eNB) configured for use in a cooperative radio access networks (C-RAN) and method for central baseband unit (BBU) processing are generally described herein. In some embodiments, the eNB may include a baseband unit (BBU) processing pool comprising a plurality of processing units. The BBU processing pool is configured to share the processing load of several sectors. A control unit may monitor the processing load of the processing units and perform dynamic load sharing by migrating the baseband processing between the processing units without changing a carrier used by user equipment operating with a sector.
