Abstract:
A Self-Organizing Network (SON) collects data pertaining to a first number of cells of a wireless network. The SON splits the collected data into a second number of groups, and, for each of the second number of groups, repeatedly set a third number of clusters to a different number between a low limit and a high limit. The SON, for each of the settings, clusters the cells into the third number of clusters and trains a deep neural network to perform a regression analysis on the third number of clusters. For each of the second number of groups, the SON also determines an optimum number of clusters based on the regression analyses, re-clusters the cells into the optimum number of clusters; and tunes engineering parameters based on the re-clustering to optimize performance of the wireless network and quality of experience pertaining to the wireless network.
Abstract:
A computer device may include a memory configured to store instructions and a processor configured to execute the instructions to select to use an access point name (APN) table to be received from a wireless access network and attach to the wireless access network. The processor may be further configured to execute the instructions to receive a Protocol Configuration Options (PCO) message from the wireless access network; retrieve the APN table from the received PCO message; select an APN from the retrieved APN table; and connect to a packet data network associated with the selected APN via the wireless access network using the selected APN.
Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium provide for an anomaly detection and remedial service that includes receiving data from a network; performing a Gaussian Probabilistic Latent Semantic Analysis (GPLSA) using the data; detecting anomaly data included in the data based on the GPLSA; and invoking a remedial measure in the network based on the detection. The anomaly detection and remedial service may detect known and unknown anomalies. Additionally, the anomaly detection and remedial service may proactively and reactively detect anomalies.
Abstract:
A method for signaling and call continuity for coverage enhancement may include selecting a cell while a user equipment (UE) device is in a radio resource control (RRC) idle state, determining if a signal level from an evolved NodeB (eNodeB) associated with the cell is sufficient for normal coverage, exchanging data with a network in a normal UE device mode via the cell upon determining that the signal level is sufficient for normal coverage, determining if a signal level from the eNodeB associated with the cell is sufficient for enhanced coverage upon determining that the signal level is not sufficient for normal coverage, and exchanging data with the network in an enhanced UE device mode via the cell upon determining that the signal level is sufficient for enhanced coverage.
Abstract:
A system may receive, from a dongle device (“dongle”), a connection request to receive mobile communication service (“service”) associated with a service campaign (“campaign”) for a mobile device: the mobile device being associated with a first service provider (“SP”); the dongle being associated with a second SP and the campaign; the dongle being configured to provide the service from the second SP to the mobile device; and the connection request including a dongle device identifier (“identifier”) associated with the dongle. The system may compare the identifier with stored identifiers associated with the campaign. The system may determine that the identifier is associated with the campaign if the identifier matches one of the stored identifiers and may cause a connection to be established to provide the service to the mobile device via the dongle based on the identifier being associated with the campaign.
Abstract:
A method, a device, and a non-transitory storage medium having instructions to attach to a user device, wherein the network device provides wireless access coverage in a cell area or a sector area of a first network; detect whether the network device is in a congested state; generate a message that indicates that the network device is in the congested state when the network device is in the congested state; and transmit the message on a control or signaling channel for receipt by user devices attached to the network device in the cell area or the sector area. The user device scans the control or signaling channel before initiating a session and determines whether the network device is in the congested state. When the network device is in the congested state, the user device performs a switchover to a second network. The user device has multimode capabilities.
