Patent ID: 7379740

Claim:
A method for simulating and optimising the use of resources available in a zone of coverage of a mobile telephone network comprising a set of zones of influence, known as cells, a multiplicity of transmitter/receivers, known as servers, whose use of resources depends on the transmission of sets of data, known as packets, required by at least one communicating mobile terminal, called the applicant terminal, present in their zone of influence, wherein: the method is implemented by the processing resources of at least one resource optimisation system and, the method includes the following: determining, by an event management module of the optimisation system, of a variation, called a disruption, of at least one packet transmission required within the network, where this disruption is determined from at least one statistical distribution map, held in storage resources of the optimisation system and that comprises data representing data packet transmissions from a multiplicity of the communicating mobile terminals present in given geographical zone during a given time period, and selecting a set of cells that comprises at least the cell in which the disruption has occurred, and determining a simulated zone within the distribution map, by a resource operating-resources control module, and then use of a routing algorithm, by the operating-resources control module, in order to determine a routing path in the simulated zone and to successively optimise the resources of the servers covering the successive cells in the routing path.
