Abstract
An example method can comprise receiving a plurality of signal characteristic measurements from each of a plurality of sensors disposed at geographically distinct premises or geographically distinct locations throughout a premises. A prioritized sensor (e.g., prioritized relative to other sensors) can be determined from among the plurality of sensors, and the signal characteristic measurement from the prioritized sensor can be compared to a set of predefined signal characteristics. A network device can adjust one or more transmission characteristics based on the received signal characteristic measurements.
Claims1
A method comprising:
- receiving, at a network device, a plurality of signal characteristic measurements from each of a plurality of sensors disposed at and associated with geographically distinct locations throughout a premises, wherein each of the plurality of sensors measures signal characteristics;
- determining a prioritized sensor among the plurality of sensors;
- comparing a signal characteristic measurement from the prioritized sensor to a set of predefined signal characteristics;
- and
- adjusting one or more transmission characteristics of the network device based on a difference between the signal characteristic measurement from the prioritized sensor and the set of predefined signal characteristics, such that a signal provided to a location associated with the prioritized sensor is altered relative to a signal provided to another of the plurality of sensors.
