Abstract
Systems and methods for auto creation of Multicast-Broadcast Single Frequency Network (MBSFN) areas are disclosed. In some embodiments, systems and methods are disclosed for providing different MBSFN area pattern types for different cell coverage and density conditions for better resource usage. In some embodiments, systems and methods are disclosed for providing tools to a customer to plan MBSFN broadcast areas and to automatically generate MBSFN Hexagon areas and allocate a proper MBSFN area pattern for the MBSFN Hexagon areas to avoid manual configuration of the MBSFN area for each cell. In some embodiments, systems and methods are disclosed for providing a solution to help network operators to remote set MBSFN areas' configuration to a network wide Radio Access Network (RAN). In some embodiments, systems and methods are disclosed for providing tools to present cells, cell range, MBSFN area locations, and configurations and enhanced or evolved Node Bs' (eNBs') relationship.
