A heuristic approach to configuration and/or planning for wireless networks is disclosed herein. In one embodiment, statistics relating to mobile device cell usage are collected and monitored. The statistics may include UE measurements (RSRP/RSRQ), UE location, number of connection requests, duration of connectivity, average traffic load associated with the users, channel utilization, and other statistics. Based on statistical analysis of the data collected, neural network analysis, data fitting, or other analysis, adjustments to cell coverage parameters such as handover thresholds, inactivity timer values, contention window size, inter-frame duration, transmit power, DRX cycle duration, or other parameters may be identified.
