System and method for qualifying service in multi-spectrum access network

Abstract:

A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium are described in which a fixed wireless qualification service is provided. A network device uses test service information pertaining to a radio band and a candidate location from an end device as a basis to qualify prospective fixed wireless service, which is provisioned via a different radio band, at the candidate location. The network device further may calculate expected downlink and uplink values for the prospective fixed wireless service based on differences between the radio bands in terms of bandwidth, utilization factors, path losses, and device loses.
