  • Patent number: 11947627
    Abstract: A computer-implemented method for context aware anomaly detection includes receiving a signal including real-time data, dividing the received signal into a set of training wavelets bounded by a respective training context, generating a prediction model for the training context by processing the set of training wavelets through a recurrent neural network to identify patterns in a sequence of data of a respective training wavelet. The method includes, in response to execution of a current context that is different from the training context, extracting current wavelets from a signal of the current context, identifying a pairwise match between same dimensions of the current wavelets and a wavelet pattern of the prediction model by aligning sequences of the current wavelet and sequences of the wavelet pattern of the prediction model. Upon determining that a total cumulative distance between the two sequences exceeds a predetermined threshold, an anomaly is identified.

  • Patent number: 11917471
    Abstract: A telecommunication network associated with a wireless telecommunication provider can be configured to dynamically switch the primary cell (PCell) used by user equipment (UE) for carrier aggregation (CA) in 5G cellular networks. Instead of remaining anchored to an initially selected PCell, a different PCell may be dynamically selected based on different network conditions. The network conditions may include network congestion, network capacity, uplink speed, location of the UE, an activity of the UE (e.g., is the UE uploading or planning to upload data), and the like. As an example, the PCell may be selected from an n41 (2.5 GHz) cell and an n71 (600 MHz) cell. When the UE is close to the n41 cell, the n41 cell may be selected. When the UE is moving away from the cell center and toward the cell edge, the PCell may be switched from the n41 cell to the n71 cell.
