Abstract
Aspects of the subject disclosure may include, for example, determining, in relation to a communication node, a neighboring node of a wireless network, wherein the neighboring node comprises a baseband processor in communication with a radio frequency (RF) subsystem. A determination is made regarding one of a spatial configuration, a hosting infrastructure configuration, or both, of the neighboring node. The spatial configuration includes one of a divided configuration, including geographically separated centralized and a distributed baseband units, and an undivided configuration including an undivided baseband unit. The hosting infrastructure configuration distinguishes a physical configuration having the baseband processor includes dedicated compute resources allocated to the node, from a virtual configuration having a virtual baseband processor hosted on shared compute resources. An association between the spatial configuration, the hosting infrastructure configuration, or both, and the neighboring node facilitates mobility within the wireless communication network. Other embodiments are disclosed.
