Claim Text:
1. A computer-implemented method for identifying backup coverage for an active network resource in a wireless networking environment, the method comprising computer-implemented operations for: identifying the active network resource to be analyzed; identifying at least one backup network resource; evaluating the at least one backup network resource to determine if the at least one backup network resource is available to function as the backup coverage for the active network resource; and prompting updating of a power management parameter associated with the wireless networking environment in response to determining that the at least one backup network resource is available to function as the backup coverage for the active network resource, wherein prompting updating of the power management parameter associated with the wireless networking environment comprises generating data commanding deactivation or a switch to reduced power of the active network resource in response to determining that the at least one backup network resource is available to function as the backup coverage for the active network resource.
