Abstract

User equipment (UE) can include a network analyzer to capture network metrics to monitor conditions of cell coverage and band dominance. In some instances, the UE is served by a base station with multiple network bands. The base station may select a network band based on an optimization scheme. In some instances, the UE can capture data representing network metrics and can report such data to a network device to further aggregate the data and to generate reports. The network device can use the aggregated data to perform band dominance analysis, which may include determining a coverage index for each available band. The coverage index may be used to determine parameters for a base station. The parameters may be modified to trigger handovers to optimize band traffic.
