Abstract
A wireless network may be managed by identifying one or more wireless subscriber systems included in a lobe pool of a wireless network, identifying at least one candidate subscriber system outside of the lobe pool with which to enable communications, and reconfiguring the antenna such that the lobe pool includes the identified candidate subscriber system.
Claims20
One or more computer-readable storage memory devices embodying one or more processor-executable instructions which, responsive to execution by at least one processor, are configured to enable a device to:
- receive a request from one or more wireless subscriber systems;
- receive information regarding a state of the wireless network;
- and
- responsive to the request and based on the information regarding the state of the wireless network, modify at least one lobe pool of the wireless network such that the lobe pool includes one or more wireless subscriber systems outside of the lobe pool.
One or more computer-readable storage memory devices embodying one or more processor-executable instructions which, responsive to execution by at least one processor, are configured to enable a device to:
- receive a request from one or more wireless subscriber systems;
- receive information regarding a state of the wireless network;
- and
- responsive to the request and based on the information regarding the state of the wireless network, modify at least one lobe pool of the wireless network such that the lobe pool excludes one or more wireless subscriber systems from the lobe pool.
One or more computer-readable storage memory devices embodying one or more processor-executable instructions which, responsive to execution by at least one processor, are configured to enable a device to:
- receive, over a wireless network, a request from one or more wireless subscriber systems;
- and
- initiate, responsive to the request and based on information regarding a state of the wireless network, modification of at least one lobe pool of the wireless network such that the lobe pool includes one or more wireless subscriber systems outside of the at least one lobe pool or excludes one or more wireless subscriber systems from the at least one lobe pool.
