Abstract
A system and related method for increasing or decreasing the range of a pico cell station. The system and method determine triggers for dynamic range change, measure operational conditions and make a change reactive to operational conditions. Range increase may be implemented to address a coverage hole. Range decrease may be implemented to address holdover attempts. Range changes are implemented by changing transmission power, reference signal received power and/or cell reselection thresholds.
