Abstract

A system for configuring a multi-mode antenna onboard one or more of a plurality of network devices on a wireless network is provided. The system includes one or more processors configured to obtain data indicative of a channel quality indicator associated with one or more antenna modes of a plurality of antenna modes in which the multi-mode antenna onboard one or more of the network devices is configurable. Each of the plurality of antenna modes can have a distinct radiation pattern. The one or more processors can be configured to determine one or more network performance indicators for the wireless network based on the data. The one or more processors can be configured to provide one or more control signals over the wireless network based on the one or more network performance indicators. The control signal(s) can be associated with reconfiguring an antenna mode of the multi-mode antenna.
