Radar shield client assurance in wireless networks

An apparatus comprising:

• one or more network interfaces to communicate with a network;
• a processor coupled to the network interfaces and configured to execute one or more processes;
• and
• a memory configured to store a process executable by the processor, the process when executed configured to:
• receive radar data regarding usage of one or more wireless channels by a radar;
• populate a database of radar features with the received radar data;
• train, using the database of radar features, a machine learning-based model to predict channel usages by the radar;
• and
• cause a wireless access point to change to a different wireless channel, based on the predicted channel usages by the radar.

A tangible, non-transitory, computer-readable medium storing program instructions that cause a service in a network to execute a process comprising:

• receiving, at the service, radar data regarding usage of one or more wireless channels by a radar;
• populating, by the service, a database of radar features with the received radar data;
• training, by the service and using the database of radar features, a machine learning-based model to predict channel usages by the radar;
• and
• causing, by the service, a wireless access point to change to a different wireless channel, based on the predicted channel usages by the radar.
