Abstract
Techniques for configuring a wireless network cloud system comprise the following steps. A density metric is estimated corresponding to at least one given coverage area of a wireless network cloud system. A configuration is determined for one or more network-access components in the given coverage area of the wireless network cloud system in response to the estimated density metric. The determined configuration may then be applied to the one or more network-access components. The density metric may correspond to a user density and/or a traffic density in the given coverage area.
Claims25
A method, comprising:
- estimating a density metric corresponding to at least one given coverage area of a wireless network cloud system;
- and
- determining a configuration for one or more network-access components in the given coverage area of the wireless network cloud system in response to the estimated density metric;
- wherein the estimating and determining steps are executed on at least one computing device.
An apparatus, comprising:
- a memory;
- and
- a processor device operatively coupled to the memory and configured to:
- estimate a density metric corresponding to at least one given coverage area of a wireless network cloud system;
- and
- determine a configuration for one or more network-access components in the given coverage area of the wireless network cloud system in response to the estimated density metric.
An article of manufacture comprising a computer readable storage medium for storing computer readable program code which, when executed, causes a computer to:
- estimate a density metric corresponding to at least one given coverage area of a wireless network cloud system;
- and
- determine a configuration for one or more network-access components in the given coverage area of the wireless network cloud system in response to the estimated density metric.
