Zusammenfassung:Methods and systems are provided for dynamical calibration of phase signals and/or amplitudes in a telecommunication system. Calibration of phases is a necessary measure to ensure proper phasing and, as a result, emission of correct beamforming patterns. Without correct phasing (and emission of correct beamforming patterns), performance of a telecommunication network may suffer and user satisfaction may decrease. However, calibration provides a period of time where service is not provided and should not be done too often as it will decrease service provided and, likely, satisfaction of service received if there are frequent periods of outages. By utilizing specific telecommunication metrics, such as temperature, performance, or error vector magnitude, necessary calibrations may be identified and evaluated such that a determination regarding an optimal calibration time is made to balance providing service and a period of service outage.
