Abstract

A wireless communication system to detect a sleepy-cell condition. The wireless communication system comprises a remote radio head that receives network data comprising user data and beamforming instructions from a baseband unit. The remote radio head transfers the user data to wireless communication devices over wireless column beams responsive to the beamforming instructions. The remote radio head further detects a loss of the beamforming instructions for a time threshold and responsively transfers a sleepy-cell alarm indicating the baseband unit.
