Abstract
A system that incorporates aspects of the subject disclosure may perform operations including, for example, obtaining performance parameters in a communications network, identifying a degradation in performance of one or more nodes of the communications network according the monitored performance parameters, and initiating corrective action to mitigate the degradation in performance of the one or more nodes of the communications network. Other embodiments are disclosed.
Claims32
A method, comprising:
- obtaining, by a system comprising a processor, Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) measurements a plurality of cell sites;
- determining, by the system, whether one or more of the SINR measurements are below a SINR threshold;
- initiating, by the system, corrective action to improve a SINR measurement of an affected cell site and corresponding path of the plurality of cell sites responsive to the SINR measurement of the affected cell site and corresponding path falling below the SINR threshold;
- and
- determining, by the system, whether the corrective action has improved the SINR measurement of the affected cell site and corresponding path.
A system, comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory that stores executable instructions that, when executed by the processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising:
- obtaining Signal to Interference plus Noise Ratio (SINR) measurements from a plurality of cell sites;
- identifying a SINR measurement of the SINR measurements that is below a threshold;
- identifying an affected cell site of the plurality of cell sites from which the SINR measurement was obtained;
- initiating corrective action to improve the SINR measurement of the affected cell site;
- and
- determining whether the corrective action has improved the SINR measurement of the affected cell site.
A machine-readable storage medium, comprising executable instructions that, when executed by a processor, facilitate performance of operations, comprising
- obtaining signal to noise measurements from a plurality of cell sites;
- determining that a first signal to noise measurement from the signal to noise measurements is below a threshold;
- identifying an affected cell site of the plurality of cell sites from which the first signal to noise measurement was obtained;
- determining whether an initial signal to noise measurement of the affected cell site changed to the first signal to noise measurement responsive to corrective action initiated by a first cell site of the plurality of cell sites to improve a signal to noise measurement of the first cell site, wherein the first cell site and the affected cell site are different cell sites;
- and
- adjusting at least in part the corrective action initiated by the first cell site to improve the first signal to noise measurement of the affected cell site responsive to determining the initial signal to noise measurement changed to the first signal to noise measurement responsive to corrective action initiated by the first cell site.
A method, comprising:
- obtaining, by a system comprising a processor, performance measurements for each of a plurality of cell sites;
- determining, by the system, whether one or more of the performance measurements are below a performance threshold;
- initiating, by the system, corrective action to improve a performance measurement of an affected cell site and corresponding path of the plurality of cell sites responsive to the performance measurement of the affected cell site and corresponding path falling below the performance threshold;
- and
- determining, by the system, whether the corrective action has improved the performance measurement of the affected cell site and corresponding path.
