1. A method for improving power efficiency of base stations, the method comprising:
determining device location information of at least a portion of one or more user devices served by an access point emitting a first beamform;
accessing device capability information associated with at least a portion of the one or more user devices served by the access point;
based on the device location information and the device capability information, determining a second beamform such that when the second beamform is emitted from the base station, (a) the base station consumes less power compared to an amount of power consumed by the base station when emitting the first beamform and (b) one or more network parameters associated with a device of the plurality of user devices exceed a predetermined threshold; and
emitting the second beamform from the base station.
