    摘要: A method and apparatus for providing planning of a plurality of serving general packet radio service support nodes in a wireless network are disclosed. For example, the method obtains input data, and determines a limit for at least one serving general packet radio service support node parameter in accordance with the input data. The method determines if the limit for the at least one serving general packet radio service support node parameter is exceeded and determines an optimal output for an objective function, wherein the objective function is based on a plurality of penalty factors, if the limit for the at least one serving general packet radio service support node parameter is exceeded.

    摘要: A method and apparatus for locating a Wi-Fi hotspot for offloading wireless traffic from a cellular network are disclosed. For example, the method obtains network traffic data for the second type of wireless access network for a geographical area, and obtains a list of sectors in the geographical area. The method selects at least one sector from the list of sectors to be relieved, and determines a geographical range for the at least one sector. The method then obtains at least one hotspot of the first type of wireless access network within the geographical range, wherein the at least one hotspot is a potential location for offloading the wireless traffic from the second type of wireless access network.

    摘要: The present disclosure provides devices, systems, and methods to utilize relative timing offset information reported by one or more mobile devices. When coupled with AGPS information reported by one or more mobile devices, the offset information is be used to calibrate calculations and subsequently to locate all 3G mobiles with GPS-like accuracy, whether or not a GPS receiver is available on said mobile device being located. A determination of a propagation delay between one or more cell sites and a mobile device is reported to a network and used to calibrate unknown information such as a timing offset, to improve the accuracy of a detected location. The relative timing offset can be applied to determine a location for all other mobile devices within the area served by the known base station. The present disclosure utilizes this method in conjunction with information crowd-sourced from a plurality of mobile devices.

    摘要: A rule-based method and apparatus for evaluating the cost of operating a network infrastructure are disclosed. For example, the method receives a request to evaluate the cost of operating a network infrastructure in a form of one or more rules, e.g., in a natural language format. The one or more rules are translated into at least one cost model. The method then applies the at least one cost model to determine the cost of operating the network infrastructure.
