1. A method comprising:
applying, by a processing system including at least one processor, a data set comprising utilization metrics of a plurality of cells of a cell sector to a throughput prediction model to obtain a first predicted throughput for the cell sector for a designated future time period, and wherein the first predicted throughput is for all cells of the plurality of cells being in an active state;
modifying, by the processing system, the data set to generate at least a first modified data set simulating at least a first cell of the plurality of cells being placed in an inactive state, wherein the modifying comprises distributing utilization metrics of the at least the first cell over at least one additional cell of the plurality of cells;
applying, by the processing system, the at least the first modified data set to the throughput prediction model to obtain at least a second predicted throughput;
determining, by the processing system, that the at least the second predicted throughput meets a threshold throughput, wherein the threshold throughput is based on the first predicted throughput; and
transmitting, by the processing system, at least one instruction to place the at least the first cell in the inactive state for the designated future time period in response to the determining that the at least the second predicted throughput meets the threshold throughput.
