Systems and methods for optimizing wireless network coverage, capacity, and throughput

Abstract:

A network device receives one or more first key performance indicators (KPIs) associated with a cell site providing wireless service within a geographic area and determines at least one first capacity usage parameter associated with the cell site providing the wireless service. The network device determines placement of an additional antenna array within the geographic area to provide a certain coverage and capacity for the geographic area based on the one or more first KPIs and the determined at least one first capacity usage parameter.
