Embodiment Construction

[0047] Various embodiments of methods and apparatus provide techniques for mapping operating parameters in a coverage area of ​​a wireless network. In one embodiment, for selecting operating parameters, parameter measurements associated with the operation of a mobile station in the coverage area of ​​a base station with multiple sector antennas, round-trip measurements associated with the mobile station and at least A signal strength measurement to estimate an instantaneous geographic location of the mobile station based at least in part on the round-trip measurement and at least one signal strength measurement to correlate the instantaneous geographic location with each parameter measurement. Various techniques for processing and mapping parameter measurements in a coverage area map based at least in part on the estimated geographic location are also presented. For example, any suitable operating parameter measured in conjunction with normal operation of a mobile station in a...

Abstract

A method for mapping operating parameters in a coverage area of ​​a wireless network includes obtaining parameter measurements for operating parameters associated with mobile stations operating in a selected portion of a network coverage area of ​​a wireless network, the network coverage area being formed by base stations defining a cellular coverage area, the selection portion being formed by at least one base station, each of the at least one base station comprising a plurality of sector antennas, each sector antenna defining a sector coverage area within the cellular coverage area; and For each obtained parameter measurement, an instantaneous geographic location of the mobile station relative to at least one base station serving the mobile station is estimated, each instantaneous geographic location based on round-trip measurements and signal strength measurements associated with the mobile station, each round-trip measurement associated with Serving base station association.

Description

technical field [0001] The present disclosure relates to providing wireless services to mobile stations in a wireless network and more particularly, but not exclusively, to mapping operating parameters in a coverage area of ​​a wireless network. Background technique [0002] Geographic location information of mobile stations is of great value for mobile applications, network optimization (such as self-optimizing network (SON)), capacity management, and drive test replacement, etc. Although many modern mobile stations can obtain their own location from an integrated GPS module, it remains a challenge for a network to track the location of a large number of subscribers over an extended period of time. Frequent location updates from mobile stations will increase network overhead and may overwhelm the network and create bottlenecks. A technique that utilizes passive location estimation from normal network operations is desirable because it avoids this increase in network overhe...
