Abstract

A method and system for tailoring the coverage area of one or more cells in a radiocommunication system is disclosed. Cell coverage is tailored through the definition of a cell profile which may include a power profile and/or a hysteresis profile. Use of a cell power profile permits the system operator the adjust the antenna radiation patterns of appropriate base stations throughout the network. Use of a cell hysteresis power profile further permits the system operator to make additional adjustments to the borders of cells, for the purpose of hand-off, beyond the cell border adjustments implemented by the cell power profile. Definition of power and/or hysteresis profiles advantageously allows the system operator to tailor the borders of each cell in the network without necessarily having to add or relocate base stations.
