Abstract
This invention presents Capacity Projectors (CaPs) for intelligent control and management that collect information on channel conditions, actual and/or predicted demand for connectivity, data throughput and its distribution for a first time period in the future using signaling and control messages, analyze the collected information to identify the configurations of the BSs and CaPs that are needed to produce desired MU-MIMO communication channels in the first time period to meet the connectivity and data throughput demand and its distribution in the first time period, and adaptively control and configure the CaPs to actively shape the MU-MIMO communication channels to meet the predicted demand and its distribution, wherein controlling and configuring the CaP comprises implementing which of the CaPs to switch to sleeping mode or work mode and adjusting one or more of transmitting power gain, antenna tilt, beam direction and/or pattern of the transmitter and/or receiver, filtering of the receiving and/or transmitting signal.
