MANAGING TRAFFIC LOAD IN A DISTRIBUTED ANTENNA SYSTEM

摘要

A controller for a distributed antenna system (DAS). The DAS has a plurality of antenna units. Each antenna unit is operable at a first frequency band, defining a first network. The controller comprises a processor; the processor is configured to receive a geo-location traffic specification. The geo-location traffic specification has an indication of a location of a device using the DAS and a traffic requirement of the device. The processor is further being configured to: select an antenna unit or group of antenna units to operate on the first network, based on the received geo-location traffic specification; wherein the antenna unit or group of antenna units is selected to meet the traffic requirement of the device with respect to the first network, in the location of the device.
