A computing system (36) provides a network designer with a mechanism for modeling migration, or a shift, of call traffic from a first server (26) operating using a first technology type to a second server (28) operating using a second technology type. The system (36) executes a traffic map generation process (56) for generating a first traffic map (60) responsive to a radio coverage area (30) and a call traffic load (84) for the first server (26), and for generating a second traffic map (62) responsive to a radio coverage area (32) and call traffic load (90) for the second server (28). The system (36) executes a call traffic migration modeling process (58) to adapt the second traffic map (62) to include a proportion (100) of the first call traffic load (84) to be shifted from the first server (26) to the second server (28).
摘要:
A system (200) provides a network designer with a mechanism by which to quickly estimate the performance of a code division multiple access wireless communication network. The system (200) allows the designer to enter a group of network and sector parameters. Based on these parameters, the user can choose one of three methods depending on a desire for speed, accuracy, and generality of result. The system (200) determines the pilot strength and interference for each location in the network. The system (200) determines pilot strength to interference values for each location. The system (200) estimates the performance of the communication network using these determined values and accounting for user-defined network parameters.

A system (36) provides a network designer with a mechanism for analyzing the performance of a code division multiple access wireless network (20). The system (36) includes executable code in the form of a probable server identification module (52), a forward link initial estimation module (54), a reverse link initial estimation module (56), a forward link analysis module (58), and a reverse link analysis (60). The modular architecture of the modules (52, 54, 56, 58, and 60) are appropriately configured and interconnected in order to form a network performance analysis process (62) that accurately analyzes both the reverse link performance and the forward link performance of the network (20).
摘要:
In a code division multiple access (CDMA) radio communications network (20) having a plurality of cells (24) subdivided into sectors (26), a computer based method (36) and a computing system (34) determine a neighbor list (56) for a selected one of the sectors (26). The sector (26) is subdivided into a plurality of locations (64). For each location (64), a primary pilot channel (88) exhibiting a primary signal quality (92) is distinguished. Secondary pilot channels (120) are identified exhibiting secondary signal qualities (119) within a signal quality threshold window (108) of the primary signal quality (92) of the primary pilot channel. The primary and secondary pilot channels (88 and 120) are included in the neighbor list (56) for the sector (26) as candidate handoff channels (98). The candidate handoff channels (98) are arranged in a ranked order in the neighbor list (56) such that those candidate handoff channels (98) having a higher rank have a greater likelihood for inclusion in a neighbor set of a mobile station (32) residing in the serving area of the sector (26).
摘要:
Methods and systems for mobile station location detection. A mobile station measures signal strength of each of a set of signals associated with the mobile station, then determines whether a number of signals in the set is less than a predetermined threshold. Based on the determination, the mobile station calculates a difference in power between a first and second signal associated with the mobile station. Thereafter, power on a channel corresponding to the mobile station is increased for a predetermined number of frames based on the calculation. The location of the mobile station is determined during the power increase.

A method (36) for providing location information of a wireless communication device (24) within a wireless communication network (20) calls for determining the coverage areas (26) of particular cell sites (22) through which the device (24) communicated during past calls. These coverage areas (26) are defined as the approximate location information for the device (24) and are provided to an authorized requesting party via a map-enabled web page (156).

摘要:
A system assigns PN offsets in a network (100) with multiple sectors (110). The system sets parameters for the network (100) and assigns PN offsets to the sectors (110) based on the set parameters. The system then identifies sectors (110) in the network (100) that have poor network performance as a result of the PN offset assignments. The system changes parameters for the identified sectors (110) and reassigns PN offsets to the sectors (110) based on the changed parameters to improve network performance.
摘要:
A system optimally assigns pseudo-noise (PN) offsets in a cellular network that includes several sectors. The system sets parameters for the cellular network, determines potential interference between each of the sectors and mobile units in the cellular network based on the set parameters, and identifies constraints for each of the sectors based on the determined potential interference. The system then approximates a highest co-offset protection value for successful PN offset assignments based on the determined potential interference and the identified constraints, and selectively adjusts a sector co-offset protection value using the approximated highest co-offset protection value as a starting point to obtain optimum PN offset assignments.
