  • Patent number: 11882526
    Abstract: An adaptive network operation (ANO) server configured to reduce unnecessary radio operation during lower and/or non-traffic times is described herein. The ANO server may receive raw data associated with one or more nodes within a telecommunications network. Responsive to receiving the raw data, the ANO server may determine, based at least in part on the raw data, a traffic level associated with the one or more nodes and/or a traffic capacity associated with the one or more nodes. The ANO server may determine one or more frequency bands and/or channels to activate and/or deactivate and may generate configuration settings to send to the one or more nodes.
    Type: Grant
    Filed: May 18, 2020
    Date of Patent: January 23, 2024
    Assignee: T-Mobile USA, Inc.

  • Patent number: 11151590
    Abstract: Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are described for a geographic boundary determination service. A geographic boundary may be associated with one of a plurality of geographic locations, and the area within the geographic boundary may be within a specified distance of the geographic location and closer to the geographic location than to any other geographic location in the plurality of geographic locations. The geographic boundary determination service may determine geographic boundaries for existing locations or may determine a set of locations whose geographic boundaries satisfy various criteria. The geographic boundary determination service may further display geographic maps that include the geographic boundaries, demographic indices and other demographic information relating to the geographic boundaries, network coverage information relating to the geographic boundaries, and a targeted geographic region or regions that the boundaries overlap.
