Abstract

Systems and methods are described for assigning a mobility parameter to a wireless device. One or more measurement reports may be collected at an access node from the wireless device. A pathloss change for the wireless device may be calculated based on the collected measurement reports. When the calculated pathloss change exceeds a threshold, the wireless device may be instructed to report surplus transmit power at the access node. The reported surplus transmit power may be correlated to preset location environments and a position of the wireless device classified based on the correlation. A mobility parameter may be assigned for the wireless device.
