Cell and evolved node b station outage restoration tool

A method, comprising:

• obtaining, by a system comprising a processor, a historical key performance indicator value, topology data representing a network topology, and statistical data representing a metric related to a number of transfers of wireless service from a reference cell device to a neighboring cell device;
• applying a filtering process to the historical performance indicator value for the reference cell device to produce a filtered key performance indicator metric for the reference cell device;
• applying the filtering process to the statistical data for the reference cell device to produce a filtered handover metric related to the number of transfers;
• determining a weighting factor for the reference cell device using the topology data and the number of transfers, wherein the topology data enables determination of a distance between the reference cell device and the neighboring cell device;
• and
• initiating display of a cell ranking score for the reference cell device as a function of the weighting factor for the reference cell device, the filtered handover metric for the reference cell device, and the filtered key performance indicator metric for the reference cell device.

A computer readable storage device comprising executable instructions that, in response to execution, cause a system comprising a processor to perform operations, comprising:

• filtering a current key performance indicator value for a reference cell device and a historical key performance indicator value for the reference cell device to produce a filtered key performance indicator metric for the reference cell device related to a defined time horizon;
• filtering statistical data to produce filtered statistical data representing a filtered statistic for the reference cell device related to the defined time horizon;
• determining a weighting factor for the reference cell device as a function a distance between the reference cell device and a cell device in proximity to the reference cell device, wherein the distance is obtained from topology data representing a network topology that comprises the reference cell device and the cell device in proximity to the reference cell device;
• and
• initiating display of a ranking score for the reference cell device, wherein the ranking score for the reference cell device is determined as a function of the weighting factor for the reference cell device, the filtered statistical data for the reference cell device, and the filtered key performance indicator metric for the reference cell device.
