1. A method of dynamic slot reconfiguration for time division duplex (TDD) nodes in a network, the method comprising:
monitoring a set of geospatial hex bins, each geospatial hex bin defined independently of cellular coverage areas, for a predetermined period of time for data utilization;
identifying at least one geospatial hex bin in the set of geospatial hex bins with a non-typical data utilization pattern, wherein the non-typical data utilization pattern is determined based on a deviation from historical data utilization associated with the at least one geospatial hex bin; and
dynamically reconfiguring a slot pattern of the at least one geospatial hex bin in the set of geospatial hex bins with the non-typical data utilization pattern, wherein the slot pattern is reconfigured based on data utilization specific to the at least one geospatial hex bin.
