Abstract

See full text

A method for configuring beamforming for a network device is disclosed. In one embodiment, such a method includes creating a map of an area in which a network device that supports beamforming is placed. The method shows, on an interactive display device, the network device on the map. The method shows, on the interactive display device, one or more beams emanating from the network device on the map. The method enables a user to manipulate the beams on the interactive display device to create a desired beamforming pattern that takes into account the map and receiving devices located in the area. The claimed method is advantageous in that it may enable a user to establish or modify a beamforming pattern in a more intuitive, visual way. A corresponding system and computer program product are also disclosed.
