Classification of Microwave Link Data

A method for classifying microwave link data of a microwave system comprising a point-to-point wireless microwave link, the method being performed by a controller entity, the method comprising:

• obtaining microwave link data in terms of a set of performance affecting values for the point-to-point wireless microwave link, wherein each performance affecting value in the set pertains to a respective performance affecting property of the point-to-point wireless microwave link;
• and
• classifying the microwave link data to operating conditions in a set of operating conditions, where each operating condition is associated with its own subset of the performance affecting properties, by for each operating condition, estimating a probability value using the performance affecting values of the subset of the performance affecting properties associated with that operating condition.

A controller entity for classifying microwave link data of a microwave system comprising a point-to-point wireless microwave link, the controller entity comprising processing circuitry, the processing circuitry being configured to cause the controller entity to:

• obtain microwave link data in terms of a set of performance affecting values for the point-to-point wireless microwave link, wherein each performance affecting value in the set pertains to a respective performance affecting property of the point-to-point wireless microwave link;
• and
• classify the microwave link data to operating conditions in a set of operating conditions, where each operating condition is associated with its own subset of the performance affecting properties, by for each operating condition, estimating a probability value using the performance affecting values of the subset of the performance affecting properties associated with that operating condition.
