    Abstract: A device, method, and computer-readable medium are provided for adjusting omnidirectional antenna array elements for mitigating cross interference between communication network cells. Radially disposed antenna array elements are configured to collectively function as a single omnidirectional antenna assembly at a cell. Signal data associated with signal strength and/or quality is monitored and received. Based on the signal data received, at least one antenna array element is selected for disconnection from the antenna assembly. The at least one antenna array element is disconnected from the assembly to nullify at least a portion of the omnidirectional signal distributed therefrom, thereby mitigating cross-interference with a neighboring cell.
