    Abstract: A speed tier based pricing scheme is utilized to increase average revenue per user (ARPU) for fixed wireless applications. To offer a speed tier based pricing scheme, a radio environment at a location of Customer Premise Equipment (CPE) and/or data associated with cell sites serving the location can be analyzed to estimate a maximum data rate that can be delivered to the user CPE with a high confidence. Based on the estimated data rate, one or more speed tiers that can be offered to the customer for subscription. Further, based on an analysis of observed network usage and/or traffic demand per customer location with reference to the speed-tier classes subscribed to by existing customers, the network can efficiently plan for on-boarding new customers and/or network expansion.

    Abstract: Dynamic metro cell location planning is provided within the wireless communication coverage area of a macro cell. Metro cell location planning can include obtaining performance parameters associated with the macro cell and evaluating coverage parameters of the macro cell. Metro cell location planning can also include selecting, based on the performance parameters and the coverage parameters, a location within a wireless communication coverage area of the macro cell for placement of the metro cell. The selected location can be conveyed to a user and/or entity for deployment of the metro cells. Metro cells can be used by a carrier to fill a coverage hole and/or to offload capacity hot-spots within the network.

    Abstract: Facilitating implementation of communication network deployment through network planning in advanced networks (e.g., 5G, 6G, and beyond) is provided herein. Operations of a system can include, configuring a first deployment scenario for first network equipment and a second deployment scenario for second network equipment. The first deployment scenario is selected from a group of first deployment scenarios and can include a first parameter. The second deployment scenario is selected from a group of second deployment scenarios and can include a second parameter. The configuring can include determining that a sum of the first parameter and the second parameter satisfies a function of a defined parameter level. The operations also can include facilitating a first enactment of the first deployment scenario for the first network equipment and a second enactment of the second deployment scenario for the second network equipment.

    Abstract: Architectures and techniques are presented that can provide point-to-point analysis to generate an improved signal strength prediction (SSP) based on, e.g., earth surface image data processing and analysis to draw conclusions of line of sight (LOS) along the propagation path between a BTS or another AP transmitter and CPE receiver. For example, USGS image data and/or elevation data of locations are identified to correspond to signal propagation between the transmitter and receiver can be analyzed for LOS signal quality at a fixed location, in addition to the statistical model prediction of the RF signal quality. As a result, foliage or terrain that obstructs the LOS can be identified and utilized to improve SSP by eliminating the additional pathloss due to LOS obstructions. Such can provide a significant improvement to SSP results that are conventionally predicted by statistical models rather than a point-to-point analysis.
