Publication number: 20240305392Abstract: Architectures and techniques are presented that can provide point-to-point analysis to generate an improved signal strength prediction (SSP) based on, e.g., earth surface image data processing and analysis to draw conclusions of line of sight (LOS) along the propagation path between a BTS or another AP transmitter and CPE receiver. For example, USGS image data and/or elevation data of locations are identified to correspond to signal propagation between the transmitter and receiver can be analyzed for LOS signal quality at a fixed location, in addition to the statistical model prediction of the RF signal quality. As a result, foliage or terrain that obstructs the LOS can be identified and utilized to improve SSP by eliminating the additional pathloss due to LOS obstructions. Such can provide a significant improvement to SSP results that are conventionally predicted by statistical models rather than a point-to-point analysis.Type: ApplicationFiled: May 20, 2024Publication date: September 12, 2024Applicants: AT&T Intellectual Property I, L.P., AT&T Mobility II LLCInventors: Zhen Wan, Xiaoyu Wang, Ravi Raina, Eric Antonio Alino, Zhefeng Li

Patent number: 11523316Abstract: Distribution of traffic to cells in a communication network can be controlled. A distribution management component (DMC) can determine overall device traffic throughput for cells of a sector that satisfy a defined traffic throughput criterion relating to a harmonic mean of the device traffic throughput for the cells to desirably enhance or maximize the harmonic mean of the overall device traffic throughput. Based on the overall device traffic throughput for the cells, the DMC can determine whether to adjust a characteristic associated with a cell of the cells to facilitate adjusting distribution of device traffic among the cells of the sector to achieve desirable load balancing of traffic by the sector and in the network. Load balancing can be achieved by controlling respective parameters with regard to communication devices that are in idle mode or connected mode to facilitate directing communication devices and associated traffic to desired cells.Type: GrantFiled: May 25, 2021Date of Patent: December 6, 2022Assignee: AT&T INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY I, L.P.Inventors: Huahui Wang, Tae Won Cho, Gopalakrishnan Meempat, Henry Kafka, Ravi Raina, Xiaoyu Wang, Laurie Bigler

Publication number: 20220141706Abstract: The disclosed technology describes on-demand adjusting of the quality of service (QoS) class identifier (QCI) relative weight settings for different QCI classes associated with user devices. A QoS controller, which can be implemented in a standalone or a cloud configuration, updates the QCI weight settings as requested or needed to deal with changing network environments, such as growing traffic, different RF conditions, new devices, ratio of different service classes of user devices, to improve the overall performance of one or more cell sites. In one implementation, the QoS controller collects actual network statistics, and runs simulations based on those statistics with different groups of candidate QCI weight settings to generate multiple result sets. The QoS controller evaluates the result sets to determine which group of QCI weight settings meets desired performance objectives, and then applies those QCI weight settings to one or more NodeBs for use with actual data traffic.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 13, 2022Publication date: May 5, 2022Inventors: Huahui Wang, Ravi Raina
