Abstract
Systems and methods for dynamically collecting information regarding network events in a 5G network are disclosed. The method includes locally storing event data initially and implementing post-event collection of the locally stored data when one or more collecting nodes become available.
Claims20
A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by a processor in a computing system, cause the computing system to execute instructions comprising:
- storing session data proximate to a first network node based on detection of a negative network event between at least one charging function (CHF) and the first network node,
- wherein the at least one CHF and the first network node are coupled via a network, and
- wherein the stored session data represents charging information regarding one or more current or recent communication sessions of the network;
- adding an identifier of the first network node to a tracking profile,
- wherein the identifier represents one or more network nodes that were unable to report the information regarding the one or more communication sessions;
- accessing the tracking profile at the CHF based on comparison of a network activity with a threshold;
- and,
- based on the accessing, modifying the tracking profile based on the identifier of the one of the first network nodes that provided the session data.

A system comprising:
- one or more hardware processors;
- at least one hardware data storage, coupled to the one or more processors, and storing instructions, which when executed by the one or more processors, perform operations to:
- store session data proximate to a first network node based on detection of a negative network event between at least one telecommunications charging operation and the first network node,
- wherein the stored session data represents charging information regarding one or more current or recent communication sessions;
- update a tracking profile to reflect that at least the first network node was unable to report the information regarding the one or more communication sessions,
- wherein the tracking profile includes an identifier for the first network node;
- process the tracking profile based on comparison of a network activity with a threshold;
- and,
- based on the processing, modify the tracking profile relative to the identifier of the first network node that provided the session data.
