  • Patent number: 11930459
    Abstract: Methods and systems are provided for dynamically disabling beamforming functionality of one or more frequency bands. For example, a frequency band may have beamforming enabled. One or more user devices may be connected to the frequency band having beamforming enabled for access to a wireless telecommunications network. User devices connected with the frequency band may be at various locations of a network cell of the wireless telecommunications network (e.g., a cell center, middle cell, cell edge). Fading information may be received by one or more of the user devices connected with the frequency band. One or more fading channel measurements of the first frequency band may be above a threshold. In some embodiments, a fading channel measurement of the first frequency band is higher than another available frequency band having beamforming enabled. As such, beamforming of the first frequency band can be dynamically disabled.
