Abstract: Improved techniques for optimizing performance of a wireless network. In an illustrative embodiment, a derivative-based optimization process is applied to optimize an objective function of a network performance metric with respect to a number of network tuning parameter variables. The optimization may be based on first or higher order derivatives of the objective function with respect to the selected network parameter variables. The objective function may include, e.g., one or more of a maximization of network coverage, a maximization of network capacity, and a minimization of network resources. Additional network parameters which are not variables in optimization process serve as constraints to the optimization process. Advantageously, the invention substantially improves the process of designing, adjusting and optimizing the performance of wireless networks.

Abstract: Improved techniques for characterizing, adjusting and optimizing the overall performance of a wireless network. In an illustrative embodiment, the overall network performance for a particular network configuration is characterized by a vector with two components, one representing network coverage and another representing network capacity. Network coverage is defined by the likelihood of service under load, including interference, and may be further weighted by traffic density. Network capacity is defined by an amount of traffic with a given spatial distribution that can be served at a given overall target-blocking rate. The overall network performance may be characterized using a two-dimensional capacity/coverage diagram which plots overall network performance vectors, each including a network capacity component and a network coverage component, for various network configurations. The overall network performance may be improved or optimized with respect to a given subset of network parameters by using an algorithm that proposes potential network configurations and evaluates them with respect to their overall network performance.

Abstract: Techniques for determination of network parameters in, e.g., a processor-implemented system for characterizing, adjusting or optimizing the performance of a wireless network. In an illustrative embodiment, values of one or more link parameters of the wireless network are interpolated along edges in a mesh of data points derived at least in part from road location data characterizing an area serviced by the wireless network. A measure of network performance, e.g., a coverage measure based on pilot signal-to-interference ratio, may be generated using the interpolated values. The edges of the mesh have associated therewith a set of edge weights representative of traffic in the wireless network. The edge weights may be adjusted so as to be in agreement with available network traffic data. Interpolating between the data points of the road-based mesh permits the network performance measure to be computed as a smooth, differentiable function of the one or more link parameters, thereby simplifying network characterization, adjustment and optimization.
