Systems and methods for service gap mitigation via tilt recommendation

An information processing system for service gap mitigation via tilt recommendation, the information processing system comprising:

• at least one memory configured to store computer program code;
• and
• at least one processor configured to access said at least one memory and operate as instructed by said computer program code, said computer program code including:
• identifying code configured to cause at least one of the at least one processor to identify a candidate cell,
• generating code configured to cause at least one of the at least one processor to generate boundaries of a service gap, the generated boundaries defining a shape of an identified geographic location of the service gap,
• first determining code configured to cause at least one of the at least one processor to determine a best server plot of the candidate cell, the best server plot being a planned coverage area of the candidate cell,
• second determining code configured to cause at least one of the at least one processor to determine geo-located samples of the candidate cell,
• categorizing code configured to cause at least one of the at least one processor to categorize the candidate cell based on an overlap between the identified geographic location of the service gap and at least one of the best server plot or locations of the geo-located samples, and
• calculating code configured to cause at least one of the at least one processor to calculate an electronic tilt based on the categorization,
• wherein said computer program code further comprises:
• third determining code configured to cause at least one of the at least one processor to determine a first percentage, the first percentage being a percentage of the best server plot that lies within the boundaries of the service gap;
• and
• fourth determining code configured to cause at least one of the at least one processor to determine the first percentage is greater than or equal to a first threshold percentage.

A non-transitory computer-readable recording medium having recorded thereon a program for performing a method of service gap mitigation via tilt recommendation, the program configured to cause a computer to:

• identify a candidate cell;
• generate boundaries of a service gap, the generated boundaries defining a shape of an identified geographic location of the service gap;
• determine a best server plot of the candidate cell, the best server plot being a planned coverage area of the candidate cell;
• determine geo-located samples of the candidate cell;
• categorize the candidate cell based on an overlap between the identified geographic location of the service gap and at least one of the best server plot or locations of the geo-located samples;
• and
• calculate an electronic tilt based on the categorization,
• wherein the program is further configured to cause the computer to:
• determine a first percentage, the first percentage being a percentage of the best server plot that lies within the boundaries of the service gap;
• and
• determine the first percentage is greater than or equal to a first threshold percentage.
