Abstract
The disclosure is related to small cell base station power management within a wireless network. In an aspect, at least one metric related to operational and non-operational states of the small cell base station is determined, a reliability state of the small cell base station is determined based on the at least one metric related to the operational and non-operational states of the small cell base station, and one or more operational parameters of the small cell base station are adjusted based on the determined reliability state.
Claims30
A method of adjusting one or more operational parameters of a small cell base station within a wireless network, comprising:
- determining at least one metric related to operational and non-operational states of a small cell base station;
- determining a reliability state of the small cell base station based on the at least one metric related to the operational and non-operational states of the small cell base station;
- and
- adjusting the one or more operational parameters of the small cell base station based on the determined reliability state of the small cell base station.
An apparatus for adjusting one or more operational parameters of a small cell base station within a wireless network, comprising:
- at least one processor configured to determine at least one metric related to operational and non-operational states of a small cell base station, to determine a reliability state of the small cell base station based on the at least one metric related to the operational and non-operational states of the small cell base station, and to adjust the one or more operational parameters of the small cell base station based on the determined reliability state of the small cell base station;
- and
- a memory coupled to the at least one processor to store the at least one metric related to the operational and non-operational states of the small cell base station.
An apparatus for adjusting one or more operational parameters of a small cell base station within a wireless network, comprising:
- means for determining at least one metric related to operational and non-operational states of a small cell base station;
- means for determining a reliability state of the small cell base station based on the at least one metric related to the operational and non-operational states of the small cell base station;
- and
- means for adjusting the one or more operational parameters of the small cell base station based on the determined reliability state of the small cell base station.
A non-transitory computer-readable medium for adjusting one or more operational parameters of a small cell base station within a wireless network, comprising:
- at least one instruction to determine at least one metric related to operational and non-operational states of a small cell base station;
- at least one instruction to determine a reliability state of the small cell base station based on the at least one metric related to the operational and non-operational states of the small cell base station;
- and
- at least one instruction to adjust the one or more operational parameters of the small cell base station based on the determined reliability state of the small cell base station.
