Abstract :
A real time fully distributed algorithm that would allow base stations (BSs) in cellular networks to autonomously and cooperatively find the wireless coverage pattern to optimize network performance is described. An antenna system that can change the radio frequency (RF) coverage is assumed at each base station. Simulations based on mobile WiMAX technology show the effectiveness and robustness of the approach.
