Abstract

Solutions are disclosed that employ selective power class permission to enhance coverage. Examples include: determining, by a wireless network, a status of a first user equipment (UE) indicating at least whether the first UE is roaming or is associated with a heavy user account; determining a signal to interference and noise ratio (SINR) for a cell of the wireless network; determining locations of UEs experiencing call failures within the cell; and based on at least the status of the first UE, the SINR for the cell, and locations of call failures within the cell, restricting the first UE from using a transmit power above a maximum transmit of power class (PC) three (PC3). A PC two (PC2) UE, which is a higher power classification UE than a PC3 UE, typically has 3 decibels milliwatt (dBm) higher transmit power than a PC3 UE.
