[0020] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the solution of the present application, the technical solution in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0021] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification, claims and drawings of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate, so that the embodiments of the present application described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the terms "including" and "having" and any of their variations are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusions, for example, a process, method, system, product or device comprising a series of steps or units is not necessarily limited to those steps or units clearly listed, but may include other steps or units that are not clearly listed or inherent to these processes, methods, products or devices.

[0022] In order to better understand the embodiments of the present application, some nouns or terms that appear in the description of the embodiments of the present application are first translated and explained as follows:

[0023] PON (Passive Optical Network) is a pure medium network that uses point-to-multipoint optical fiber transmission and access technology, broadcasting for downlink and time division multiple access for uplink to flexibly form tree, star, bus and other topological structures, and only a simple optical splitter needs to be installed at the optical branching point. Therefore, it has the advantages of saving optical cable resources, sharing bandwidth resources, saving equipment room investment, fast network construction speed and low comprehensive network construction cost.

[0024] Mean: Also known as average value, it is the average value of a set of data, which is obtained by adding the data and then dividing it by the number of data. Its calculation formula is as follows:

[0025]

[0026] Where x i represents the i-th data, and n represents the total number of data.

[0027] Mean Squared Error (MSE): It is the average of the sum of squares of the distances of each data from the true value, that is, the average of the sum of squared errors. The calculation formula is as follows:

[0028]

[0029] Where x GT represents the true value, x i represents the i-th data, and n represents the total number of data.

[0030] Hypothesis Testing: Also known as statistical hypothesis testing, it is a statistical inference method used to determine whether the differences between samples and samples, or between samples and the population, are caused by sampling errors or essential differences. Significance testing is the most commonly used method in hypothesis testing and is also the most basic form of statistical inference. Its basic principle is to first make a certain hypothesis about the characteristics of the population, and then make an inference on whether the hypothesis should be rejected or accepted through statistical reasoning of sampling research. Commonly used hypothesis testing methods include: Z test, T test, F test, chi-square test, etc.

[0031] F-Test: also known as Joint Hypotheses Test, Variance Ratio Test, Variance Homogeneity Test. It is a test that the statistical value follows F-distribution under the Null Hypotheses (H0). It is usually used to analyze statistical models with more than one parameter to determine whether all or part of the parameters in the model are suitable for statistical population.

[0032] Process Capability Index: Also known as process capability index, it refers to the actual processing capability of a process in a controlled state (stable state) within a certain period of time. It is the inherent capability of the process, or it is the ability of the process to guarantee instructions. The process here refers to the process of the comprehensive effect of five basic quality factors such as operators, machines, raw materials, process methods and production environment, that is, the production process of product quality. Product quality is the comprehensive performance of the role of each quality factor in the process.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] According to an embodiment of the present application, a method for identifying abnormal network devices is provided. It should be noted that the steps shown in the flowchart of the accompanying drawings can be executed in a computer system such as a set of computer executable instructions, and although a logical order is shown in the flowchart, in some cases, the steps shown or described can be executed in an order different from that shown here.

[0035] Figure 1 is a flow chart of a method for identifying abnormal network devices provided according to an embodiment of the present application, such as Figure 1 As shown, the method includes the following steps S102-S108, wherein:

[0036] Step S102: acquiring a performance indicator parameter set of a newly connected first network device and a plurality of connected second network devices in the passive optical network within a preset time period.

[0037] In the technical solution provided in the above step S102, the above-mentioned first network device newly connected to the network can be understood as: a user terminal device that has been connected to and registered to the PON network for the first time in a recent period of time, such as an optical modem or a router, where the time period for newly connected to the network can be defined by the operator according to actual conditions, such as "within the past month", "within the past three months", etc. The multiple second network devices that have been connected to the network can be understood as: network devices that have been running in the network for a period of time, and their network access time is earlier than the defined new network access time period. Usually, the number of second network devices that have been connected to the network is usually much larger than that of newly connected network devices, and their performance indicator parameters can reflect the long-term performance of network devices in actual operating environments.

[0038] In addition, the performance indicator parameter set of the above-mentioned first network device and multiple second network devices that have entered the network within the preset time period can be a parameter set of the preset performance indicator of the network device within the preset time period, wherein the preset performance indicator can be one of multiple performance indicators.

[0039] Step S104: determining at least one second target network device of the same model and / or same version as the first network device according to the performance indicator parameter sets of the first network device and each second network device.

[0040] In the technical solution provided in the above step S104, since network devices of the same model usually use the same hardware configuration, and network devices of the same version run the same version of software or firmware. This means that network devices of the same model and / or the same version should have similar performance characteristics and parameter ranges in design, such as transmit power, receive power, signal-to-noise ratio, etc. Therefore, by analyzing the distribution between the performance indicator parameter sets of the first network device and each second network device, at least one second target network device with a similar distribution of the performance indicator parameter set to the first network device is identified, and it is inferred that the identified second target network device and the first network device belong to the same model or version.

[0041] Step S106, determining a specification boundary value according to the performance indicator parameter set of the first network device, and determining a process capability index of each second target network device according to the specification boundary value and the performance indicator parameter set of each second target network device.

[0042] In the technical solution provided in the above step S106, since the newly connected first network device is usually still in the early stage of performance testing and stability, its performance indicator parameter set can be used to establish a "healthy" benchmark performance indicator, that is, the specification boundary value of the second target network device of the same model and / or the same version, as the normal range of the device performance parameter. As the second target network devices that have been connected to the network, their performance may change due to aging, damage, software problems, etc. Therefore, by combining the specification boundary value and the performance indicator parameter set of each second target network device, the process capability index of each second target network device can be determined, and the process capability index can measure the degree to which the device process capability meets the specification range.

[0043] Step S108: for each second target network device, determine whether the second target network device has a quality abnormality according to the process capability index of the second target network device.

[0044] In the technical solution provided in the above step S108, the process capability index, as a quantitative indicator, can measure the degree of compliance between the performance parameters of the equipment and the predetermined specification boundary values, which reflects the stability and consistency of the network equipment during the manufacturing and operation process. Therefore, based on the process capability index of the second target network equipment, it can be judged whether its performance parameters do not meet the expected stability and consistency standards, so as to analyze whether the quality abnormality is caused by equipment aging, failure, software problems or other related factors.

[0045] Based on the technical solutions provided by the above steps S102 to S108, it can be known that in the embodiment of the present application, a combination of big data analysis and statistical methods is adopted to achieve the technical effect of intelligent identification and evaluation of abnormal quality of network equipment in the network, so as to achieve early warning and precise positioning of network equipment with performance problems, thereby optimizing the purpose of network service quality.

[0046] The following describes the various steps of the abnormal network device identification method in conjunction with a specific implementation process.

[0047] As an optional implementation, in the technical solution provided in the above step S102, the performance indicator parameter set of the network device can be obtained through the following steps, including: a performance indicator parameter set of preset performance indicators collected by monitoring probes deployed on the first network device and each second network device in the passive optical network within a preset time period.

[0048] Specifically, the embodiment of the present application detects a performance indicator parameter set of a preset performance indicator of the network device within a preset time period through a probe deployed on the network device. The types of the preset performance indicators include: transmit power, received power or received power signal-to-noise ratio.

[0049] Since the transmission power determines the strength of the signal sent by the network device, if the transmission power is too low, it may cause signal attenuation, affect the data transmission rate and quality, and further affect the user's network experience; at the same time, abnormal changes in transmission power are often early signs of equipment aging, hardware damage or software problems. Therefore, when identifying abnormal network devices, the embodiments of the present application can mainly identify potential faulty devices in advance by continuously monitoring and analyzing the performance indicator of transmission power, provide early warning for network maintenance, and help take timely measures to prevent faults and reduce the risk of network interruption.

[0050] After collecting the performance indicator parameter sets of each network device, it is necessary to determine whether the performance indicator parameter distribution is a normal distribution (also called a Gaussian distribution). This is because the premise of the hypothesis test method is that the data distribution is a normal distribution. If the data deviates from the normal distribution, the effectiveness of these test methods will be reduced, and the conclusions drawn may be unreliable. Generally, there are several methods to determine whether the data distribution is a normal distribution: graphical test (i.e., drawing a histogram or QQ graph of the data to observe whether it presents a typical bell-shaped curve of a normal distribution), statistical test (i.e., using the statistical method of normality test to test whether the data meets the assumption of a normal distribution), empirical rules (i.e., observing whether the skewness and kurtosis of the data are close to the skewness 0 and kurtosis 3 of the normal distribution), etc.

[0051] In addition, if the data distribution is not normal, it can be made close to normal distribution through data transformation (such as logarithmic transformation, square root transformation, etc.), or non-parametric statistical methods can be used for analysis, such as Mann-Whitney U test, Kruskal-Wallis test, etc.

[0052] As an optional implementation, in the technical solution provided in the above step S104, the method may include:

[0053] Step S1041, determining a first mean square error of the first network device on a preset performance indicator according to a performance indicator parameter set of the first network device, and determining a second mean square error of each second network device on a preset performance indicator according to a performance indicator parameter set of each second network device;

[0054] Step S1042, using a hypothesis testing method to compare the first mean square error of the first network device on the preset performance indicator with the second mean square error of each second network device on the preset performance indicator, and determine at least one second target network device of the same model and / or version as the first network device.

[0055] Specifically, the above hypothesis verification methods include but are not limited to: F test (used to compare whether the variances of two groups of data are equal), T test (used to compare whether the means of two groups of data are significantly different, applicable to small sample data with normal distribution), chi-square test (used to test whether there is a significant association between two or more categorical variables, applicable to count data), Mann-Whitney U test (used to compare whether the medians of two independent samples are the same, applicable to cases where the data are not normally distributed) or Kruskal-Wallis test (used to compare whether the medians of three or more independent samples are the same, which can be used when the data are not normally distributed or the variances are uneven), etc.

[0056] Taking F check as an example, the technical solution provided in the above step S1042 can be implemented according to the following steps:

[0057] First, for each second network device, a quotient of a first mean square error of the first network device on a preset performance indicator and a second mean square error of the second network device on a preset performance indicator is calculated to obtain a corresponding verification statistic;

[0058] When the verification statistic is not greater than the preset verification threshold, it is determined that the second network device is a second target network device of the same model and / or the same version as the first network device.

[0059] When the verification statistic is greater than the preset verification threshold, it is determined that the second network device is a second target network device of the same model and / or the same version as the first network device.

[0060] That is, the first mean square error of the first network device on the preset performance indicator is recorded as The second mean square error of the second network device on the preset performance indicator is recorded as Then its statistics can be expressed as:

[0061]

[0062] In addition, the general significance level (i.e., the probability of making an error when estimating the population parameter falling within a certain interval) is 0.05, and the degree of freedom is the sampling point of the acquisition network device within the preset time period minus one. Therefore, by consulting the corresponding F test adjacent value table, the corresponding verification critical value can be obtained. If the F statistic is greater than the F critical value, it means that the verification result has a significant difference; conversely, if the F statistic is not greater than the F critical value, it means that the verification result has no significant difference.

[0063] In addition to the several implementation schemes listed above, based on the basic concept of the embodiments of the present application in identifying other devices of the same model and / or the same version as the newly-connected device, those skilled in the art may also implement other technical schemes to identify a second target network device of the same model and / or the same version as the first network device. For example, those skilled in the art may make changes to the above implementation schemes, which should also be within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0064] As an optional implementation, in the technical solution provided in the above step S106, the method may include:

[0065] Step S1061, determining a first mean and a first mean square deviation of the first network device on a preset performance indicator based on a performance indicator parameter set of the first network device, and determining a specification boundary value based on the first mean and the first mean square deviation, wherein the specification boundary value includes: a specification upper limit value and a specification lower limit value.

[0066] Among them, the first mean value of the first network device on the preset performance indicator is denoted as μ, and the first mean square deviation is denoted as σ. Then the specification boundary values ​​of other network devices of the same model and / or version as the first network device can be denoted as: the upper specification limit (Upper Spec Limit, USL) is μ+4σ, and the lower specification limit (Lower Spec Limit, USL) is μ-4σ.

[0067] Step S1062: Determine a second mean and a second mean square error of the second target network device on the corresponding performance indicator according to the performance indicator parameter set of the second target network device.

[0068] The second mean value of the corresponding performance index of the i-th second target network device can be recorded as μ f,i , the second mean square error can be recorded as σ f,i .

[0069] Step S1063, determining the process capability index of the second target network device according to the specification boundary value, the second mean and the second mean square deviation of the second target network device and according to the following formula:

[0070]

[0071] Where μ represents the first mean, σ represents the first mean square deviation, μ+4σ represents the upper specification limit, μ-4σ represents the lower specification limit, and μ f,i represents the second mean of the i-th second target network device, σ f,i represents the second mean square error of the i-th second target network device.

[0072] It should be noted that the above method of setting the specification boundary value takes into account that in the normal distribution, Theoretically, it can cover data points closer to 100% in the normal distribution to strictly screen out network devices with abnormal performance, ensure network stability and service quality, and further reduce the impact of outliers. However, if the network environment has very high performance requirements for the equipment, or the cost allows for a higher maintenance frequency, you can consider using a larger standard deviation multiple (such as ) to further reduce potential abnormal devices. Therefore, the setting method of determining the specification boundary value based on the first mean and the first mean square error can be dynamically adjusted according to the actual operation of the device, changes in the network environment or the operator's strategy.

[0073] As an optional implementation, in the technical solution provided in the above step S108, the method may include:

[0074] When the process capability index of the second target network device is less than a preset threshold value, determining that the second target network device has a quality abnormality;

[0075] When the process capability index of the second target network device is not less than a preset threshold value, it is determined that the second target network device has no quality abnormality.

[0076] Specifically, the threshold value can usually be set to 1.33 or the like. Generally, the higher the threshold value, the smaller the deviation between the mean and mean square error of the transmission power of other devices and the reference value is required, and the higher the number of unqualified products will be. The second target network device with a process capability index lower than the threshold value is regarded as a device with unstable or abnormal performance. This is because a low process capability index indicates that the performance parameters of the device deviate greatly from the specification boundary value, that is, the performance indicators of the device are not stable enough or do not meet the expected performance standards.

[0077] Furthermore, after determining that the second target network device with abnormal quality exists, the second target network device with abnormal quality may be managed according to the following method, including:

[0078] Step 1: Determine the gap between the process capability index of the second target network device with quality anomalies and the threshold value. The gap reflects the degree of deviation between the stability of the device's transmission power and the network standard, which is an important basis for judging the quality status of the device.

[0079] Step 2: Determine the quality abnormality level of the second target network device with quality abnormality according to the size of the gap, that is, classify the second target network device with quality abnormality into different quality abnormality levels, and the level classification can be based on a fixed interval.

[0080] For example, a device with a difference of less than 0.3 may be marked as slightly abnormal, a device with a difference between 0.3 and 0.6 may be marked as moderately abnormal, and a device with a difference greater than 0.6 may be marked as severely abnormal. It should be noted that the classification of abnormality levels may be determined based on network performance requirements and equipment maintenance costs.

[0081] Step 3: Determine the management priority of the second target network device with quality abnormality according to the quality abnormality level, and perform maintenance on the second target network device with quality abnormality in sequence according to the management priority.

[0082] Among them, the second target network device with a higher quality anomaly level has a higher corresponding management priority; conversely, the second target network device with a lower quality anomaly level has a lower corresponding management priority. Therefore, by sequentially maintaining the second target network devices with quality anomalies according to the management priority, it can be ensured that the devices with higher priority receive maintenance services before the devices with lower priority, thereby ensuring that the network stability and user experience are not significantly affected. The maintenance content includes but is not limited to: adjustment of device parameters, software upgrades, hardware replacement or on-site inspections, etc.

[0083] Through the above abnormal network device identification method, not only can the devices whose performance indicators are lower than the poor quality threshold be identified, but also the devices whose performance indicators begin to decline but have not yet reached the poor quality standard can be discovered in advance, thereby effectively preventing network problems and improving the initiative and accuracy of network maintenance.
