Method and system for remote monitoring and control of wireless cell-sites
First Claim
1. A method of remotely monitoring and controlling at least one cell-site, the method comprising:
- (a) receiving data indicative of a status of at least one battery of the at least one cell-site at a remote processing device, wherein the status relates to at least one of a voltage status, a conductance status, and a temperature status;
(b) processing the data at the remote processing device;
(c) determining at least one further action that should be taken by the at least one cell-site in response to the data; and
(d) sending from the remote processing device at least one control signal to the at least one cell-site configured to cause the at least one cell-site to take the at least one further action,wherein the received data concerns the status of at least one battery of a first cell-site of the at least one cell-site, and the at least one control signal is sent to a second cell-site of the at least one cell-site.

Abstract
A method and system for remotely monitoring and controlling one or more cell-sites are disclosed. In one embodiment, the method includes (a) receiving data indicative of a status of at least one battery of at least one cell-site at a remote processing device, where the status relates to at least one of a voltage status, a conductance status, and a temperature status. Additionally, the method includes (b) processing the data at the processing device, and (c) determining at least one further action that should be taken by the at least one cell-site in response to the data. Further, the method includes (d) sending from the processing device at least one control signal to the at least one cell-site configured to cause the at least one cell-site to take the at least one further action. Also, in other embodiments, the method involves remote monitoring and controlling of devices other than batteries.

19. A system for remotely monitoring and controlling a plurality of cell-sites, the system comprising:
-
means for communicating with the plurality of cell-sites, and a processing device coupled to the means for communicating, wherein the means for communicating is configured to receive data from a first cell-site of the plurality of cell-sites and convey the data to the processing device, wherein the processing device is configured to analyze the received data and determine, based upon the analyzed data, an operational condition of at least one of the plurality of cell-sites, and wherein the processing device generates a control signal to be provided to a second cell-site of the plurality of the cell-sites, the control signal including a command that a tilt of an antenna system of the second cell-site be adjusted. - View Dependent Claims (20)
