Patent ID: 11937099
Assignee: CABLE TELEVISION LABORATORIES, INC.
Field: Digital communication (Electrical engineering)
Classification: CPC H | IPC H

Claim 4:
5. A telecommunications system for transmitting signals to an electronic device, the telecommunications system configured to:
transmit polling signals from a base station to determine a position of the electronic device;
based on the position of the electronic device, determine first beam forming parameters for transmitting wireless signals to the electronic device;
in accordance with the first beam forming parameters, transmit the wireless signals to the electronic device, the wireless signals configured to at least partially avoid interference with at least one neighboring base station of a set of neighboring base stations;
determine that the position of the electronic device has changed; and
in response to determining that the position of the electronic device has changed, transmit updated wireless signals to the electronic device, the updated wireless signals formed in accordance with second beam forming parameters different from the first beam forming parameters; and configured to:
determine, with respect to the base station, whether the electronic device is in-line or out-of-line with the at least one neighboring base station;
when the electronic device is in-line with the at least one neighboring base station, transmit the wireless signals having a wide beam; and
when the electronic device is out-of-line with the at least one neighboring base station, transmit the wireless signals having a narrow beam.
