A wireless base station setting position calculation method includes a step Si for assuming the setting area to be a rectangle, receiving an input of longitudinal and lateral lengths of a setting area and the number of wireless base stations to be set “s”, and determining one or more candidates of a number of divisions “d” of the setting area according to the number of wireless base stations “s”, a step S2 for representing the number of divisions “d” in a division ratio x:y and selecting, for each number of divisions “d”, according to the longitudinal and lateral lengths of the setting area, a division ratio at which diagonal line lengths of divided areas are minimized, a step S3 for performing, for each number of divisions “d”, adjustment of a division pattern until a difference m between the number of divisions “d” and the number of wireless base stations “s” decreases to 0, a step S4 for calculating, for each number of divisions “d”, a sum of the diagonal line lengths of the divided areas and selecting the division pattern with which the sum is minimized, and a step S5 for setting the wireless base stations in the centers of gravity of the divided areas in the division pattern selected in step S4.

A mobile wireless communication device (mobile device) receives a Minimization of Drive Test (MDT) configuration comprising criteria for performing event-based logging. The mobile device determines if the criteria have been met and, in response to a determination that the criteria have been met, performs an MDT in accordance with the MDT configuration. The MDT results are logged in the memory as an MDT log. The mobile device transmits, to a base station, a log availability indicator indicating the availability of the event-based MDT log.

An enhanced network environment is provided by provisioning a device to utilize the 6 GHz frequency band. The device requires provisioning so as not to interfere with legacy systems. The provisioning requires that the two-dimensional location of the device be obtained and sent to a topographical mapping network resource to obtain an accurate ground location for the terrain. The elevation is then modified based on an actual height from ground level of the device. The location of the device can then be sent to an automated frequency controller (AFC) resource to obtain an equivalent isotropically radiated power mask that can be used to provision the device so that the device can operate in the 6 GHz frequency band without causing interference with any other systems. Once provisioned, the device can be registered with the AFC resource.

A system and method for automatic deployment of at least one outdoor small cell. The method comprises dynamically collecting traffic data corresponding to a geographic location associated with a cellular network by a data collection module [202]. Next, a data collection module [204] automatically identifies a group of spatial grids from the one or more cells within the geographic location based on the traffic data and automatically determines one or more locations within the geographic locations for deploying the at least one outdoor small cell based on the identified group of spatial grids. A backhaul link clearance module [206] automatically determines a backhaul connection between the one or more determined locations with the cellular network. An azimuth planning module [208] automatically determines an azimuth for the at least one outdoor small cell based on the determined connection. A deployment unit [210] deploy the at least one outdoor small cell.

A technique is directed to methods and systems of virtual site inspections. In some embodiments, a network operator navigates a drone which captures image data of equipment and layout of a site. The image data is processed and used to generate a 3D model of the site. A network operator virtually installs new equipment in the virtual representation of the site, and presents the 3D model of the site, with the new equipment in the proposed location, to a permitting authority. The permitting authority can review the 3D model of the new equipment at the site and approve or deny authorization for the network operator to physically install the equipment at the site. After the new equipment is installed, a network operator can capture image data of the installed equipment at the site to prove to the permitting authority that the equipment was installed at the site according to regulation.
