Abstract
Methods, systems, and apparatus, including computer-readable media, for making power adjustments in self-organizing networks. In some implementations, signal quality data is received for user devices that each communicate wirelessly with at least one base station in a set of base stations. Transmission power data indicating transmission power levels of the base stations is also received. Based on the signal quality data and the transmission power data, signal quality levels for the user devices are determined for different times corresponding to different combinations of transmission power levels of the base stations. Channel attenuation levels are estimated based on differences among signal quality levels of the multiple user devices corresponding to the different combinations of transmission power levels of the base stations. Operating parameters are provided to one or more of the base stations based on the estimated channel attenuation levels.
