Each of the RRHs 104 may be any known or to be developed RRH. In one example embodiment, each of the RRHs 104 is connected to the server 106 via dedicated physical line connection 110 such as a fiber optic cable or any other known or to be developed means for physically connecting the RRHs 104 and the server 106 (such connection between each RRH 104 and the server 106 may also be referred to as a fronthaul connection or radio connection).

Each of the servers 106-1 to 106-5 of the network of servers 106 may include, among other known or to be developed components, a processor, a memory, a switch and a router. The memory of each of the servers 106-1 to 106-5 107-2 may have, among other types of data, sets of computer readable instructions stored therein, which when executed by the corresponding processor, transform the corresponding processor into a special purpose processor for implementing the functionalities of a plurality of e-NodeBs servicing the user devices 102, including but not limited to baseband processing of signals received at one or more of the servers 106-1 to 106-5 (e.g., L1-L3 processing of signals). In one example embodiment, the corresponding processor of each of the servers 106-1 to 106-5 is formed of several general purpose processors (GPPs) that are commercially available. The network of servers 106 will be described in detail with respect to FIG. 2.
