SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR PERFORMING WIRELESS SPECTRUM ANALYSIS AND CONFIGURING WIRELESS NETWORKS USING AN INTERNET OF THINGS (IOT) SYSTEM

摘要

A system and method are described for collecting and using wireless spectrum data using Internet of Things (IoT) devices. For example, one embodiment of a system comprises: a plurality of Internet of Things (IoT) devices making network signal measurements in a plurality of different locations; an IoT service to receive the network signal measurements from the IoT devices, the IoT service storing the network signal measurements and/or generating and storing wireless spectrum data derived from the network signal measurements; the IoT service, one or more original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) of networking equipment and/or one or more wireless service providers to analyze the network signal measurements and/or wireless spectrum data and to responsively configure wireless devices based on the analysis.
