Aspects herein provide systems, methods, and media for dynamically switching between multiple input multiple output algorithms to improve spectral efficiency and capacity. In aspects, based on data encoding traffic, user device mobility, and coverage, a base station automatically and intelligently selects and implements a particular downlink operating schema. Using various periodicity, the base station dynamically switches between various downlink operating schemas to reflect changing conditions in the date that encodes traffic, user device mobility, and coverage.
