The present disclosure relates to a communication technique for combining a 5G communication system for supporting a higher data transmission rate than a 4G system with an IoT technology, and a system therefor. The present disclosure can be applied to 5G communication and IoT related technology-based intelligent services (for example, smart homes, smart buildings, smart cities, smart cars or connected cars, health care, digital education, retail business, security and safety related services, etc.). A method for identifying a wireless signal transmission characteristic in a wireless communication system according to one embodiment of the present specification includes the steps for: identifying a signal transmission location; identifying a structure; identifying at least one radio wave incoming structure located on the structure, and identifying a transmission characteristic of a wireless signal transmitted from the signal transmission location on the basis of information on the at least one radio wave incoming structure.

A method for identifying a client device in a network, and a first radio in the network that is coupled with the client device is provided. The method includes determining one or more sequences of roaming events for multiple client devices in the network, evaluating a performance metric for a roaming event and evaluating an interaction between the client device and one or more radios involved in the roaming events for the plurality of client devices. The method also includes selecting a second radio in the network based at least in part on (1) the one or more sequences of roaming events, (2) the performance metric, and (3) the interaction between the client device and the one or more radios, and recommending switching the client device from the first radio to the second radio. A system and a predictive tool to perform the above method are also provided.

Described herein are technologies relating to assigning wireless beacons to positions within a building, wherein the wireless beacons are included in an indoor positioning system. A computer-implemented floorplan representation is generated, wherein the representation includes a layout of the building and materials of structures of the building. Coverages of wireless beacons are simulated, and multiple objectives are balanced to identify a number of wireless beacons to deploy in the building and positions in the building where the wireless beacons are to be deployed.

A service qualification platform may receive, from a user device, a service request to qualify a unit of a multi-unit building to receive a service. The service qualification platform may obtain a service coverage mapping associated with the multi-unit building and may provide, to the user device and via a user interface that is associated with a geographic information system, a unit location request for an indication of a location of the unit within the multi-unit building. The service qualification platform may receive unit location information that is associated with the indication and may determine a service qualification metric based on the service coverage mapping and the unit location information, wherein the service qualification metric is associated with a capability of receiving the service within the unit. The service qualification platform may perform an action associated with the service qualification metric.

Methods, systems, and devices for steering in mesh networks by a serving device are described. The method may include determining that a client device within a range of the serving device is eligible for steering, where the client device is outside a set of one or more trigger client devices, requesting, based on the determination, a radio resource management report from at least one trigger client device of the set of one or more trigger client devices, receiving the radio resource management report from the at least one trigger client device of the set of one or more trigger client devices, and performing a steering operation of the client device from the serving device to a target device based on the radio resource management report from the at least one trigger client device.

Systems and methods to identify whether user traffic is generated indoors (e.g., from within a building) or outdoors for a variety of applications, including improving capacity planning, identifying new products offerings, troubleshooting/planning, competitive analysis, planning optimum locations of capacity planning solution deployment, traffic offload analysis, etc. are disclosed. The method receives and aggregates data from a variety of sources, including customer geolocation data, network data, street/building maps, indoor/outdoor classification of traffic, etc. to generate demand density maps that depict network traffic usage patterns at a building level. The method can then use the demand density maps to identify hotspots, evaluate in-building coverage, and select and rank optimum solutions and/or locations for capacity improvement solutions deployment. As a result, a telecommunications service provider is able to efficiently and economically identify targeted solutions and locations to expand capacity of cell sites and improve customer experiences.

A wave generation module can illustrate an aggregate wave pattern in a virtual environment representative of a physical environment in 3-D. The aggregate wave pattern takes into account an effect of the composition characteristics of the structural walls and fixtures on the wave generating characteristics for the of access points.

A service qualification platform may receive, from a user device, a service request to qualify a unit of a multi-unit building to receive a service. The service qualification platform may obtain a service coverage mapping associated with the multi-unit building and may provide, to the user device and via a user interface that is associated with a geographic information system, a unit location request for an indication of a location of the unit within the multi-unit building. The service qualification platform may receive unit location information that is associated with the indication and may determine a service qualification metric based on the service coverage mapping and the unit location information, wherein the service qualification metric is associated with a capability of receiving the service within the unit. The service qualification platform may perform an action associated with the service qualification metric.
