Abstract
There is provided a computer-implemented method for selecting an electrical tilt angle for at least one cellular antenna comprising: receiving at least one parameter indicative of mobile client resource use associated with at least one cellular antenna, the at least one cellular antenna being part of a plurality of antennas arranged in at least one cluster as part of a cellular network; and iteratively adjusting an electrical tilt angle of the at least one antenna so that the at least one parameter indicative of client resource use is maintained within at least one predefined threshold, thereby providing users of the mobile clients of the at least one cellular antenna with at least a level of service within the at least one predefined threshold.
