Abstract: A Quality of Service (QoS) improvement system and method for transport network fault detection and QoS improvement so that a telecommunication network service provider can analyze the root cause on chronic performance issues and recommend potential solutions is disclosed. The system runs performance analysis on each AAV (mobile backhaul) or other transport networks and collects performance related metrics data.

For each cluster, the system binds the AAV performance KPI data with one or more of the following site features—health, location, vendor, market, service type, etc.—to create a cluster map. The system can then generate inferences on root causes of the performance issues.

A home provider can also use multiple MNCs to provide similar service allocation to home users, with each MNC providing a different combination of services. The home provider can also use mobile subscriber identification numbers (MSINs), or ranges of MSINs, to provide service allocation for home users.
