FORECASTING OF DYNAMIC ENVIRONMENTAL PARAMETERS TO OPTIMIZE OPERATION OF A WIRELESS COMMUNICATION SYSTEM

摘要

An aspect of the exemplary embodiments of this invention is a method that includes receiving information from a plurality of spatially distributed user devices (10), where the information includes at least observations of a radio environment of each user device (10). Based on the received information, the method creates a model of time evolution of a spatio-temporal map (12E) for a plurality of spatial locations. The method further includes creating a policy based on the model of time evolution of the spatio-temporal map (12E), and transmitting the policy to the plurality of user devices (10). A further aspect of exemplary embodiments of this invention is a method that includes generating a probabilistic model based at least on observations of a radio environment of a user device (10); transmitting the probabilistic model to a network access node (12) of a wireless communication network; receiving information from the network access node (12); and operating the user device (10) at least in part based on the received information. Also described are apparatus (10, 12) and computer program products that operate in accordance with the methods.
