Abstract
Systems and methods are provided for managing wireless devices, specifically for managing transitions between SU-MIMO pairing and MU-MIMO pairing based on group membership and signal quality. Methods include monitoring a signal quality between an access node and one or more wireless devices, determining that a signal quality metric is below a threshold, and determining that the one or more wireless devices belongs to one or more groups based at least in part on a required Quality of Service (QoS) of the one or more wireless devices. The methods further include transitioning the one or more wireless devices from SU-MIMO pairing to MU-MIMO pairing based on the determining that the one or more wireless devices belongs to the one or more groups and the determining that the signal quality metric is below the threshold.
