Monitor and predict Wi-Fi utilization patterns for dynamic optimization of the operating parameters of nearby ENBS using the same unlicensed spectrum

Abstract:

A method is implemented by a network device for determining parameter values for a base station of a cellular network. The base station operates in a wireless band that is shared with one or more wireless access points. The parameter values are determined to optimize network performance while ensuring fair coexistence between the base station and the one or more wireless access points. The method includes obtaining proximity information for the one or more wireless access points relative to the base station, obtaining activity information for the one or more wireless access points, and determining parameter values for the base station based on the proximity information and the activity information.
