Position information assisted network control
First Claim
Patent Images
1. A network controller comprising processing circuitry configured to:
- receive dynamic position information indicative of a three dimensional position of at least one mobile communication node;
compare fixed position information indicative of fixed geographic locations of respective access points of a network to the dynamic position information to determine a relative position of the at least one mobile communication node relative to at least one of the access points based on the fixed position information and the dynamic position information; and
provide network control instructions to at least one network asset based on the relative position,wherein the relative position comprises an expected relative position corresponding to a future mobile communication node position and indicating an estimated time at which the mobile communication node will be at the future mobile communication node position.

Abstract
A network controller including processing circuitry may be configured to receive dynamic position information indicative of a three dimensional position of at least one mobile communication node, compare fixed position information indicative of fixed geographic locations of respective access points of a network to the dynamic position information to determine a relative position of the at least one mobile communication node relative to at least one of the access points based on the fixed position information and the dynamic position information, and provide network control instructions to at least one network asset based on the relative position.
