Systems and methods are described herein for automatically detecting wireless neighbor relationships within a wireless network. While a user device is using a first cell for communications, the user device detects and provides a physical cell identifier for a second cell to a computing device, e.g., the first cell or server. The computing device queries a relationship table of the first cell for a known handover relationship between the first cell and the second cell. If the table does not include the known handover relationship, the computing device instructs the user device to obtain a cell global identifier of the second cell. The computing device then adds a new handover relationship between the first cell and the second cell to the relationship table using the cell global identifier of the second cell. Communications for the user device can be automatically handed over from the first cell to the second cell.

Techniques for criteria modification of wireless network infrastructure software package validation are provided. A NodeB includes a network entity that is a central unit, distributed unit or radio unit. A computer system receives data representing a pre-installation reference parameter determined when the network entity is operated using a first software package and receives data representing a post-installation reference parameter determined when the network entity is operated using a second software package. The computer system stores a criterion for validating the second software package, identifies a difference between the post-installation and pre-installation reference parameters, modifies the criterion based on the difference and determines whether to validate the second software package based on the modified criterion. If validated, the computer system, sends a signal to the NodeB indicating the validation, and the NodeB causes the second software package to be installed on the network entity.
