Abstract

Systems, methods, and software for operating a wireless communication system to predict loading on a wireless access node are provided herein. In one example, a method includes allocating past wireless communication usage in a geographic area served by the wireless access node among different wireless communication device types, identifying a growth metric for each of the wireless communication device types based on past device sales in a geographic region larger than the geographic area, and applying the growth metric for each of the wireless communication device types to the past communication usage allocated to each of the wireless communication device types to predict future communication usage for each of the wireless communication device types at the wireless access node. The method also includes aggregating the predicted future communication usage loading for each of the wireless communication device types to predict the future loading on the wireless access node.
