  • Patent number: 11451997
    Abstract: A computer device may include a memory configured to store instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to determine network slices for a plurality of user equipment (UE) devices associated with a base station wherein a particular network slice identifies a particular service category or a UE device attribute category associated with particular ones of the plurality of UE devices, determine a distribution of network slices for the base station based on the determined network slices for the plurality of UE devices, and determine an adjustment for an optimization parameter based on the distribution of network slices for the base station. The computer device may be further configured to adjust the optimization parameter for the base station based on the determined adjustment, wherein adjusted optimization parameter is used by the base station to manage data traffic associated with the plurality of UE devices.
