Abstract
A classification method for classifying physical layer protocol data units (PPDU) for further RF quality analysis is described. The classification method Includes: receiving a plurality of PPDUs; processing the plurality of PPDUs by a PPDU classification algorithm, thereby obtaining at least one classification parameter being associated with at least one of at least two different classes; and augmenting the PPDUs with classification information based on the at least one classification parameter, thereby obtaining augmented PPDUs. Further, a classification apparatus comprising one or more circuits for classifying physical layer protocol data units (PPDU) for further RF quality analysis is described.

A classification method for classifying physical layer protocol data units (PPDU) for further radio frequency (RF) quality analysis, the classification method comprising:
- receiving, by a classification circuit, a plurality of PPDUs, wherein the classification circuit is integrated into a measurement device or connected with a measurement device;
- processing, by the classification circuit, the plurality of PPDUs by a PPDU classification algorithm, thereby obtaining at least one classification parameter being associated with at least one of at least two different classes;
- and
- augmenting the PPDUs with classification information based on the at least one classification parameter such that the classification information is added to the PPDUs, thereby obtaining augmented PPDUs, wherein the classification information added to the PPDUs is not comprised in the received plurality of PPDUs;
- wherein at least two different classification parameters are determined by the PPDU classification algorithm;
- wherein the at least two different classification parameters are determined according to a hierarchy;
- and
- wherein classification criteria associated with the at least two different classification parameters are combined based on a logical connection.
A classification circuit for classifying physical layer protocol data units (PPDU) for further radio frequency (RF) quality analysis, the classification circuit comprising:
- a signal input, and an artificial intelligence sub-circuit,
- the signal input being configured to receive a plurality of PPDUs,
- the artificial intelligence sub-circuit being configured to process the plurality of PPDUs by a PPDU classification algorithm, thereby obtaining at least one classification parameter being associated with at least one of at least two different classes, and
- the artificial intelligence sub-circuit being configured to augment the PPDUs with classification information based on the at least one classification parameter such that the classification information is added to the PPDUs, thereby obtaining augmented PPDUs wherein the classification information added to the PPDUs is not comprised in the received plurality of PPDUs;
- wherein the artificial intelligence sub-circuit is configured to determine at least two different classification parameters by the PPDU classification algorithm;
- wherein the artificial intelligence sub-circuit is configured to determine the at least two different classification parameters according to a hierarchy;
- and
- wherein the artificial intelligence sub-circuit is configured to combine classification criteria associated with the at least two different classification parameters by a logical connection.
