Example Embodiment

[0086] A good placement location can be determined by the following operations:

[0087] (i)a) Determine the location-specific requirements for cross-regional use of mobile devices in the context of applications executed by users (for example, real-time streaming videos have very different file download requirements),

[0088] (ii) Measure network characteristics across this area.

[0089] This information (i and ii) allows the establishment of a mapping that shows how well existing network resources meet the needs of contextual applications that vary from location to location and can therefore best place new cells (with defined characteristics).

[0090] Existing cell location planning methods that are generally based on predicting and / or sensing signal strength, using network mapping and characterization data, and capacity planning tools do not consider the location-specific usage context of users. As user data and application usage evolve, this will become increasingly important. ...

Abstract

A method to guide the placement of new small cell, wherein a small cell is a radio cell station with much smaller coverage area than a macro cell, comprising one or more existing wireless cells, one or more mobile devices of known location and application use and context, a processor and database system, a new small cell, a device for guiding the user in the placement of the new small cell, comprising the steps: - The location dependant measured network characteristics, and location dependant contextual data needs of the mobile device, are recorded and stored in the database system over time; - the contents of the database system are used to determine the likely future location specific network needs, such that this information together with the characteristics of the new small cell are used to determine the placement co-ordinates of the new small cell, - and use the placement co-ordinates to guide a user in the placement of the new small cell, with the device for guiding the user.

Description

field of invention [0001] The present invention relates to positioning of small cells for wireless communication within buildings or other restricted areas. Background of the invention [0002] With the rapid evolution of mobile networks, it is widely predicted that there will be a large number of connected devices and associated cells. In addition to conventional macro cells, many "small cells" will operate at low energy levels and be designed to communicate with devices in the immediate local area. In this document, a small cell is defined as any radio cell with a much smaller coverage area than a conventional "macro" cell, including public "picocells", residential femtocells, or WiFi access point. [0003] A current example of a small cell is a femtocell. A femtocell is a consumer-deployed portable unit that typically uses a licensed spectrum. Unlike traditional base stations, the backhaul to the wireless communication network is via a consumer-provided packet data (I...
