Optimize CDMA system capacity with location

The introduction of location technology shifts the paradigm of network engineering. It opens the door for providing a revolutionary approach to network engineering. An algorithm is discussed for a revolutionary way of combining parameters made available through location technology and currently available system parameters for future network engineering and operation. "Continuous" snapshots of the network can be parsed and intelligently stored into the network performance data warehouse as images. These images can be analyzed off-line to select certain "troubled" instances of the network (this can be site specific). These instances can then be analyzed through simulation and/or engineer intervention. An optimized solution can be developed. These "troubled" instances and associated solutions can be fed back into the "virtual network engineer" simulated by the AI engine to increase its knowledge base. Later, the intelligent pseudo "network engineer" can identify "troubled" network instances and compare them with the existing images and associated solutions in the data warehouse. The existing solution then can be applied to perform real time automated network engineering. This is done through image processing by selecting the most similar network instance and associated solutions. By saving more and more "troubled" instances and developed associated solutions, the "virtual network engineer" increases its knowledge base and becomes more and more "intelligent" and can handle future "troubled" instances based on the "experience". For example, the dynamic power allocation and individual specific dedicated dynamic SHO (soft handoff) thresholds for each mobile can be combined to engineer the network performance efficiently once the mobile location and associated network characteristics can be identified
