  • Publication number: 20240048998
    Abstract: A device may calculate a PRB seasonal strength based on PRB data from base stations, and may scale and normalize the PRB data based on the PRB seasonal strength. The device may calculate and combine FFTs for the normalized and scaled PRB data, may calculate a z-score for the combined FFT, and may calculate FFT IQRs for frequencies of the combined FFT. The device may filter the FFT IQRs based on the z-score, may process the FFT IQRs, with a clustering model, to identify clusters of periodic interference patterns, and may aggregate the clusters. The device may identify peak data in the PRB data, and may process the peak data, with a model, to determine a parameter for clustering. The device may process the PRB data, with the clustering model, to identify final clusters of periodic interference patterns, and may perform actions based on the final clusters.

  • Publication number: 20240015469
    Abstract: A device may determine that a first geographical area satisfies an area threshold. The first geographical area includes an estimated location of a source of interference associated with base stations. A first plurality of vertices, of the first geographical area, are based on locations of the base stations. The device may determine a second plurality of vertices. The second plurality of vertices are closer to the estimated location than the first plurality of vertices. The device may provide information regarding the second plurality of vertices and may obtain magnitude information indicating magnitudes of the interference measured at the second plurality of vertices. The device may determine a third plurality of vertices based on the magnitude information. The device may provide information regarding a second geographical area, formed by the third plurality of vertices, to cause a search of the second geographical area to identify the source of the interference.

  • Patent number: 11803424
    Abstract: Systems described herein may allow for the intelligent configuration of containers onto virtualized resources. Different configurations may be generated based on the simulation of alternate placements of containers onto nodes, where the placement of a particular container onto a particular node may serve as a root for several branches which may themselves simulate the placement of additional containers on the node (in addition to the container(s) indicated in the root). Once a set of configurations are generated, a particular configuration may be selected according to determined selection parameters and/or intelligent selection techniques.

  • Patent number: 11777623
    Abstract: An interference detection system in a network identifies a first wireless station that has experienced radio frequency (RF) interference from an unknown source on at least one physical resource block (PRB) by determining that a key performance indicator (KPI) for the at least one PRB on the first wireless station has a value indicative of interference. The interference detection system identifies one or more second wireless stations that have experienced similar interference on the at least one PRB. A plurality of estimated interference source locations are determined based at least on geographic locations of the first wireless station and the one or more second wireless stations. Determining the plurality of estimated interference source locations further comprises generating a boundary based on the geographic locations of the first wireless station and the one or more second wireless stations and selecting a plurality of estimated interference source locations within the boundary.

  • Publication number: 20230275675
    Abstract: A device may receive time domain PRB data associated with a plurality of base stations of a network, and may transform the time domain PRB data into frequency domain PRB data. The device may identify, based on the frequency domain PRB data, periodic interference patterns associated with the network, and may process periodic data associated with the periodic interference patterns, with a clustering model, to identify clusters of periodic interference patterns. The device may utilize a time offset analysis to link clusters and identify a transient periodic interferer, and may process cluster data associated with the clusters and the transient periodic interferer, and public transportation data, with a machine learning model, to predict a route associated with the transient periodic interferer. The device may perform one or more actions based on the route associated with the transient periodic interferer.

  • Patent number: 11636917
    Abstract: Disclosed herein are systems and methods for determining metabolic pathway dynamics using time series multiomics data. In one example, after receiving time series multiomics data comprising time-series metabolomics data associated a metabolic pathway and time-series proteomics data associated with the metabolic pathway, derivatives of the time series multiomics data can be determined. A machine learning model, representing a metabolic pathway dynamics model, can be trained using the time series multiomics data and the derivatives of the time series multiomics data, wherein the metabolic pathway dynamics model relates the time-series metabolomics data and time-series proteomics data to the derivatives of the time series multiomics data. The method can include simulating a virtual strain of the organism using the metabolic pathway dynamics model.
