Embodiment approach 1
[0122]Exemplary embodiment 1: A radio access network comprising:
[0123] an anchor processor circuit configured to perform high layer radio access network node operations for connection with a wireless terminal;
[0124] a distributed processor circuit configured to perform lower layer radio access network node operations for said connection with said wireless terminal and utilize a context used by said anchor processor circuit ;
[0125] transceiver circuitry associated with the distributed processor circuitry and configured to transmit and receive packets comprising the connection over a radio interface with the wireless terminal; wherein the anchor processor The circuitry is configured to provide a first endpoint for a tunnel through which the connection is carried over the packet network to the distributed processor circuitry, and wherein the distributed processor circuitry is configured to provide at the second endpoint of the tunnel.
Embodiment approach 2
[0126] Exemplary Embodiment 2: The radio access network according to Exemplary Embodiment 1, wherein the higher layer radio access network node operations include:
[0127] Service Data Adaptation Protocol (SDAP) operations; and
[0128] Packet Data Convergence Protocol (PDCP) operation;
[0129] The lower radio access network node operations include:
[0130] radio link control (RLC) operation; and
[0131] Media Access Control (MAC) operation.
Embodiment approach 3
[0132] Example embodiment 3: The radio access network as in example embodiment 1, wherein the lower layer radio access network node operations include medium access control (MAC) operations, and wherein the connection requires At least some of the radio resource management functionality is handled by a media access controller of the distributed processor circuit.
