Abstract

In one example, a system includes a central unit and a plurality of radiating points communicatively coupled to the central unit and located remotely from the central unit. Each respective radiating point includes a detector configured to evaluate uplink signals received from a coverage area of the respective radiating point. The detector is further configured to determine which services of a plurality of services supported by the system are needed and which services of the plurality of services supported by the system are not needed based on the evaluation of the uplink signals. The detector is further configured to send a request, to the central unit, to activate a service determined to be needed.
