Abstract: Apparatuses and methods for identifying network anomalies. A method includes determining a cumulative anomaly score over a predefined time range based on a subset of historical PM samples and determining an anomaly ratio of a first time window and a second time window, based on the cumulative anomaly score. The method also includes determining one or more anomaly events coinciding with CM parameter changes based on the anomaly ratio; collating the PM, alarm, and CM data into a combined data set based on matching fields and timestamps; generating a set of rules linking one or more CM parameter changes and the collated data to anomaly events; and generating root cause explanations for CM parameter changes that are linked to anomaly events.

Abstract: A method for operating a base station is provided. The method includes in response to a triggering event, fetching information on a base station (BS) configuration parameters comprising a location, a height, an antenna pattern, and topographical details surrounding the BS; determining the BS configuration parameters that are error prone and require re-estimation; obtain measurement reports created by at least one user equipment (UE); determining an audit method to perform an audit correction, the audit correction based on the one or more of the BS configuration parameters to re-estimate, available BS information and the measurement reports; performing the audit correction, to obtain a result based on a computed score for each candidate value of the BS configuration parameters; generating, based on the result, one or more corrective actions; and adjusting at least one of the BS configuration parameters based on the one or more corrective actions.

Abstract: A network management apparatus of a wireless network includes a network interface, a processor, and a memory. The memory contains instructions, which when executed by the processor, cause the apparatus to receive, via the network interface, first data comprising values of key performance indicators (KPIs) obtained from elements of the wireless network for a first time period, receive, via the network interface, second data comprising values of key quality indicators (KQIs) for the first time period, wherein the KQIs comprise metrics of end-user quality of service (QoS) of the wireless network, and perform supervised learning to train an artificial intelligence (AI) model based on the first and second data, wherein features of the AI model are based on KPIs available from elements of the wireless network, and outputs of the AI model comprise values of one or more KQIs.
