Abstract

Systems and methods for configuring base stations in a geographic region to handle specific respective types of data traffics are provided. The configuration of the base stations can be static, semi-static, or dynamic. User devices are associated with base stations based on their data traffic requirements. By configuring each base station for a particular traffic type, each base station can handle its corresponding traffic with lower complexity and using fewer resources.
