Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for dynamically adjusting cell coverage sensitivity to address asymmetry of wireless cells that affect upstream and downstream traffic mismatch. In one aspect, a method includes estimating, at a network controller, one or more packet demodulation thresholds for an access point; sending, by the network controller, the one or more packet demodulation thresholds to the access point; receiving, from the access point, collected statistic, the collected statistics being link performance characteristics between the access point and one or more endpoints associated with the access point measured by one or more sensors associated with the access point; updating, at the network controller, the one or more packet demodulation thresholds based on the collected statistics to yield an updated packet demodulation threshold; and configuring, by the network controller, the access point with the updated demodulation threshold.
