Abstract: The energy-savings state of a cellular network access area is determined at the cluster level where each cluster includes multi-carrier sectors having high handover attempts to one another. To determine if the cluster can transition into an energy-savings state, key performance indicators for the cluster are evaluated. Each sector-level KPIs is converted into a cluster-level KPI by taking the maximum value of the sector-level KPI across the cluster. The cluster-level KPIs can indicate that the cluster can transition into the energy-savings state when the cluster's user count and/or its capacity utilization are lower than first predetermined threshold values. The order that each frequency layer in the cluster transitions into and out of an energy-savings state is determined by the frequency layer's energy-savings priority.

Abstract: A method for optimizing capacity and coverage in a target area of a multi-radio access technology (RAT) cellular network. In some aspects, the performance of the higher-generation RAT and that of the lower-generation RAT are each evaluated in order to optimize the capacity and coverage of the higher-generation RAT.

Abstract: A system and method for dynamically improving or optimizing the performance and robustness of a wireless communication network such as a mobile communication system or cellular telephony network are disclosed. In some aspects, a plurality of time and space dependent key performance indicators (KPI) are used as part of a statistical determination of a pattern and schedule for optimizing the design, configuration and operation of the network. By dynamically applying a method of multiple KPI deviations (MKD) the system and method improves handover execution in cellular or similar systems and reduces radio link failures and improves overall subscriber service quality.
