1. A method, comprising:
- modifying at least one coverage area of an access node to compensate for lost coverage in a sleeping cell detected by the access node, wherein the access node implements resource allocation algorithms and a cell identification algorithm; and
instructing at least one of the resource allocation algorithms or the cell identification algorithm to perform a predetermined action concurrently with said modification.

Abstract
The present invention provides a method of coordinating access nodes when a sleeping cell is detected. The method may include modifying a coverage area of an access node to compensate for lost coverage in a sleeping cell detected by the access node. The access node implements resource allocation algorithms and a cell identification algorithm. The method may also include instructing the resource allocation algorithms and/or the cell identification algorithm to perform a predetermined action concurrently with the modification.
