Abstract
A method of deriving cell characteristic values for cells within a wireless communication network. The method for determining a set of cells for which cell characteristic values are to be derived, and using a genetic algorithm to derive cell characteristic values for the set of cells based at least partly on measurement data obtained by wireless communication subscriber units within the wireless communication network.
Claims21
A method of deriving cell characteristic values for cells within a wireless communication network, the method comprising:
- determining a set of cells for which cell characteristic values are to be derived;
- and
- using a genetic algorithm to derive cell characteristic values for the set of cells based at least partly on measurement data obtained by wireless communication subscriber units within the wireless communication network.
A non-transitory computer program product having executable program code stored therein for performing a method of deriving cell characteristic values for cells within a wireless communication network, the program code operable for:
- determining a set of cells for which cell characteristic values are to be derived;
- and
- using a genetic algorithm to derive cell characteristic values for the set of cells based at least partly on measurement data obtained by wireless communication subscriber units within the wireless communication network.
A geolocation system comprising at least one cell characteristic value derivation component arranged to:
- determine a set of cells for which cell characteristic values are to be derived;
- and
- use a genetic algorithm to derive cell characteristic values for the set of cells based at least partly on measurement data obtained by wireless communication subscriber units within the wireless communication network.
