Abstract: PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a wireless communications system where a service provider measures the radiation pattern of a base station antenna and automatically re-adjusts the radiation pattern by taking non-uniformity of an RF characteristic into account. SOLUTION: Measured values are collected and performance metric is derived from the measured values and analyzed in order to control an adjustable base station antenna. As examples of the adjustable base station antennas, a linear array antenna or a narrow beam antenna can be cited. The performance metric is derived from the measured values relating to sub-sectors in a sector of a service base station antenna. In order to conduct the correlation above, an approximate position of a mobile subscriber unit is decided from a measured time. A control signal sent to the adjustable base station antenna is calculated so that the performance metrics of sub sectors can be enhanced within a limitation to limit deterioration in the performance metric of the sub-sectors.

Abstract: The present invention bills a call in accordance with a measured quality of service (QoS) level afforded by the call and specified in a service level agreement. The measured quality of service is determined from a collection of measurements associated with the call. An adjustment factor is determined by a subscriber class of service and the measured quality of service. The adjustment factor is utilized by a billing processor in rating the call.

Abstract: The present invention retunes adjustable base station antennas of a wireles s communications system in order to improve performance metrics that are determined by measurements and that are associated with sub-sectors within the wireless communications system. The present invention calculates and applies control signals to the adjustable antennas to improve the performance in accordance with the performance metrics. Thus, the present invention obviates much of the labor that is required for retuning the wireless communications system with changing radio conditions.
