Abstract:
1. One or more computer-readable storage memories embodying processor-executable instructions which, responsive to execution by at least one processor, are configured to enable a femto cell to: identify, using the femto cell, a plurality of preselected wireless signal carriers based on a predefined geographical area; measure, using the femto cell, an initial power level for each wireless signal carrier of the plurality of preselected wireless signal carriers provided in the predefined geographical area; select, using the femto cell, one of the wireless signal carriers of the plurality of preselected wireless signal carriers based on predefined criteria associated with the measured initial power level effective to enable the femto cell to communicate with a target mobile device; evaluate, using the femto cell, a data rate control (DRC) average associated with the target mobile device; determine, using the femto cell, whether the evaluated DRC average is above a predetermined threshold; responsive to determining the evaluated DRC average is above the predetermined threshold, repeatedly: until the evaluated new DRC average associated with the target mobile device is below the predetermined threshold; and responsive to determining the DRC average or the new DRC average is below the predetermined threshold, maintain the DRC average or the new DRC average associated with the target mobile device.
