Abstract: A method for detecting anomalous behaviour in an edge communication network. The method is performed by a hierarchical system of detection nodes deployed in the edge communication network. A plurality of first detection nodes at a first hierarchical level of the system obtain samples of an incoming traffic flow from a wireless device, use an ML model to generate an anomaly detection score representative of a probability that the incoming traffic flow is associated with anomalous behaviour, provide the anomaly detection score to a detection node at a higher hierarchical level of the system, and, if the anomaly detection score is above a threshold value, initiate action to take defensive action with respect to the incoming traffic flow.

Abstract: The disclosure relates to a method, device and non-transitory computer readable media or selecting a transmit power, a physical resource block (PRB), and a modulation and coding scheme (MCS) for a grant free uplink transmission. The method comprises obtaining an observation of the radio environment of the device. The method comprises selecting an action, based on the observation, for execution during a next time slot, the action comprising selecting the transmit power, the PRB, and the MCS for the grant free uplink transmission.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatuses are disclosed. A network node configured for performing network routing associated with a plurality of wireless devices, WDs, in a communication system is described. The network node includes processing circuit configured to collect, from a control plane, a plurality of graph states associated with a plurality of graphs. Each graph of the plurality of graphs has at least one graph node associated with one WD of the plurality of WDs. At least one action is determined, using self-learning, to update at least one route in at least one graph of the plurality of graphs based on the collected plurality of graphs states. The at least one action is transmitted to a controller for instructing at least one WD to update at least one network route based on the at least one action.

Abstract: Wireless communications have become ubiquitous for society with the availability of low cost front end transmitter and receiver circuits. Network operators strive to provide wireless signals with good Signal to Noise and Interference Ratio (SNIR) whilst increasing useable network capacity and bandwidth using maximum over-the-air data rate and controlling or minimizing over-the-air congestion. Historically this has been achieved via evolutions of network and consumer hardware, firmware, software and hence it would be beneficial to provide network operators with a means of increasing network capacity without requiring either additional hardware complexity and/or additional computational complexity in the receiving devices. The inventor has established a new domain within the network, the spreading code domain, to increase the data rate, by using spreading codes to map the data in conjunction with the constellation symbols and reduce the amount of transmitted data required.
