System for managing services of WiMAX base stations

摘要

A system that incorporates teachings of the present disclosure may include, for example, a base station having a wireless transceiver operable in compliance with a Worldwide Interoperability for Microwave Access protocol, and a controller to manage the wireless transceiver. The controller can be operable to receive a request from a communication device to access the base station, and to direct the communication device to a second base station upon determining that granting wireless access to the communication device reduces an operating performance of the base station below an operating threshold of the base station. Additional embodiments are disclosed.

主权项

1. A communication device, comprising:
a memory to store instructions; and a processor coupled to the memory, wherein the processor, responsive to executing the instructions, performs operations comprising:
sending a request for wireless access to a first base station of a plurality of base stations, wherein the wireless access is compatible with a worldwide interoperability for microwave access protocol;receiving a first rejection of the wireless access to the first base station according to a first impact to a first operating performance of the first base station based on a modulating level of wireless signals transmitted by the communication device, wherein the first base station determines that the wireless access can be handled by a second base station of the plurality of base stations; andreceiving a first acceptance of the wireless access to the second base station according to a second impact to a second operating performance of the second base station, wherein the second operating performance is above an operating threshold.
