Radio Parameters Frequent Remote Adaptation: Antenna Tilt and Pilot Power for Dedicated Channels

摘要

Remote Adaptation of network parameters such as antenna tilts and pilot power levels brings important gains to the network performance in terms of capacity. The problem of finding the optimal combination for those parameters across all sectors is represented as an optimization problem and solved with heuristic algorithms. The remote functionality allows a frequent adaptation with no additional costs associated to it. The moving hotspot model is adopted to prove the importance of such a procedure under non-uniformly traffic distribution with dedicated channels in a WCDMA network.
