Abstract
In some embodiments, an apparatus includes a monitor module configured to monitor a set of performance indicators associated with a first network topology of a wireless network provider system. In the first network topology, a set of virtual baseband units services a set of remote radio heads. The apparatus includes a detector module configured to detect an operational condition of the wireless network provider system based on at least one value associated with the set of performance indicators at a first time. The apparatus further includes an optimization module configured to define, based on the operational condition, a second network topology for the set of virtual baseband units. The optimization module is further configured to send a signal to a virtual baseband unit pool manager to configure the wireless network provider system in the second network topology at a second time after the first time.
