Abstract
Systems, methods and computer software are disclosed for simultaneous Long Term Evolution (LTE) and New Radio (NR) Physical Resource Block (PRB) scheduling in a network. In one embodiment a method includes transmitting a NR synchronization signal via Multicast Broadcast Single Frequency Network (MBSFN); wherein the NR uses standard LTE subframes with Cell Reference Signal (CRS) rate-matching and additional Demodulation Reference Signal (DMRS) position; dynamically sharing a sub-frame between LTE and 5G NR; and scheduling simultaneous LIE and NR PRB within 1 ms granularity, implemented within a Virtual Baseband Unit (VBBU) facilitated via a Heterogeneous Network (HetNet) Gateway (HNG).
