Patent ID: 8401517

Claim:
A method for managing service quality provided by a mobile wireless network including a population of base station transceivers and associated antennas at a radio frequency interface: acquiring, via a communications network infrastructure for the mobile wireless network, individual data volume demand parameter values for the population of base station transceivers; acquiring, via the communications network infrastructure, individual data connection attempts demand parameter values for each of the population of base station transceivers; analyzing the data volume demand parameter values to render statistical values for data volume demand parameter values for the population of base station transceivers; analyzing the data connection attempts demand parameter values to render statistical values for data connection attempts demand parameter values for the population of base station transceivers; establishing, based upon the statistical values for data volume demand, a data volume demand trigger point; establishing, based upon the statistical values for data connection attempts demand, a data connection attempts demand trigger point; and applying the data volume demand trigger point and the data connection attempts demand trigger point, respectively, to the individual data volume demand parameter values and the individual connection attempts demand parameter values to render a transceiver candidate list, wherein the transceiver candidate list contains transceivers having parameter values exceeding both the data volume demand trigger point and the data connection attempts demand trigger point.
