A probe device and method for measuring TDD interference from neighboring networks in an Enterprise Network (EN). The probe device is situated on a campus of an EN in a position for measuring TDD interference between a neighboring wireless network. The probe device measures TDD interference data and provides it to an Enterprise Network and Orchestrator, which determines the TDD configuration used by neighboring networks, and can take action to mitigate or resolve interference effects from neighboring networks. The probe UE has a TDD measurement unit that may include an SIB Measurement unit for receiving broadcast SIBs signals from neighboring networks, a UL SINR Measurement Unit, a DL SINR Measurement Unit, and a UL RSSI Measurement Unit. The probe device may be positioned in a fixed location in an Enterprise Network campus, and connected to an external power supply.

A method and apparatus for allocating radio resources in a RAN deployment in an Enterprise Network. Radio resource parameter allocation decisions for all the Base Stations and Access Points (BS/APs) in the deployment are made responsive to network graphs formed using predicted path loss. In one embodiment the predicted path loss values are simulated for a particular enterprise network deployment, network graphs are formed using the path loss values, and radio resources parameters are allocated responsive to the network graphs. Advantageously, the network graphs provide the network with the ability to quickly and efficiently allocate radio resources, which can be automated. In the initial installation, this reduces cost and time. During operation, quick and efficient resource re-allocation provides quick adaptation to resource changes, an advantage that is useful particularly in the context of a CBRS system in which previously-available channels can be terminated.
