Abstract

A multi-mode radio unit, and more specifically providing a multi-mode radio unit having a 7.2 split mode and a full gNodeB (gNB) mode may be provided. A 7.2 split mode may be executed at a Multi-Mode Radio Unit (MMRU). Next a metric associated with a front-haul link between the MMRU and a Distributed Unit (DU) may be monitored. The metric may be compared to a first threshold, and when the metric is above the first threshold, the MMRU may be caused to switch from the 7.2 split mode to a full gNodeB (gNB) mode.
