Patent ID: 8811205

Claim:
A method of correcting network configuration data, the network configuration data describing a wireless communication network in a wireless communication system, the wireless communication system comprising wireless communication units and comprising at least two sectors; the network configuration data comprising at least one network parameter; the method comprising: a) communicating using at least one wireless communication units via wireless communication links with at least two sectors of the wireless communication network; b) deriving a probability density function for a location of each wireless communication unit communicating in step a), from at least one of the group of: (i) measurement information from the wireless communication unit; (ii) the network configuration data; c) combining the probability density functions from multiple communications to provide a combined function; d) analyzing the combined function to derive a most likely value for a network parameter, thereby generating a corrected network parameter; and e) correcting the network configuration data by incorporating the corrected network parameter.
