Abstract
Techniques, devices, and systems for predicting and/or mitigating geographic and temporal-specific user equipment (UE) population surge-related network service problems. For example, service provider servers can be utilized to prevent decreases in the downlink speeds by calculating parameters associated with predicted UEs at future events. The parameters can include expected downlink speeds utilized to manage, modify, add, etc., cell sites at geographic locations associated with the future events.
Claims20
A system comprising:
- at least one processor;
- and
- non-transitory memory storing instructions that, when executed by the at least one processor, cause the at least one processor to perform operations comprising:
- receiving a request signal that is indicative of a future event;
- identifying, based at least in part on a geographic venue identifier and potential user equipment (UEs) associated with the future event, predicted parameters associated with the future event, the predicted parameters comprising available cellular frequency bands, available cellular technology-specific bandwidths, and estimated cellular technology-specific usage-related factors;
- calculating, based at least in part on the predicted parameters, an average expected downlink speed for the potential UEs;
- and
- in response to calculating the average expected downlink speed, performing an automated action including at least one of transmitting a response signal, generating an event-related alarm, generating a temporal-based and venue-specific cell site transport request query, triggering temporal-based activation of a dormant cell site, triggering temporal-based remote delivery of a portable cell site, or establishing an individualized cell cite placement scheduling tag.
