BACKUP COVERAGE IN A WIRELESS NETWORK

Concepts and technologies are disclosed herein for identifying backup coverage in wireless networks. An active network resource to be analyzed is identified, and a at least one potential backup network resource is identified. The at least one potential backup network resource is evaluated to determine if the at least one potential backup network resource is available to function as the backup coverage for the active network resource. If the at least one potential backup resource is available to function as the backup coverage for the active network resource, a power management parameter associated with the wireless networking environment can be updated.
