ABSTRACT:
In accordance with the preferred embodiments of the present invention, a method (400) and an apparatus (e.g., base station (140)) for enabling a communication resource reset are described herein. In particular, a controller (e.g., a base station controller (120)) and a communication resource (e.g., a base station (140)) are in communication via a communication link (250). The method (400) provides a physical layer element (320) that is operatively coupled to the communication link (250). Further, the method (400) monitors a link parameter associated with the communication link (250) via the physical layer element (320). The method (400) restores the base station (140) to an initial state in response to a trigger event associated with the link parameter so that the base station controller (120) is operable to reestablish communication with the base station (140).
