A telecommunications network is a collection of nodes and links that is capable of carrying audio, visual, and data communications. While the term was once used to refer only to the collection of switches and wiring used by telephone service providers to provide audio connectivity to residential and business customers, it is now understood to include Internet, microwave, and wireless equipment as well as the more traditional forms of telephony.

Classifying customer's intent using large language models (LLMS)

A system for classifying customer communications based on customer intent receives a communication from a customer during a communication session. The communication can include natural language. The system can create an embedding vector based on the natural language of the communication. The first embedding vector can include a numerical representation of natural language extracted from the communication. The system can compare the embedding vector to multiple embedding vectors associated with intent classifications corresponding to a prediction of a type of assistance available for customers. The multiple embedding vectors can be created based on a model that is configured to identify customer intent. The system can identify which intent classification of the multiple intent classifications is associated with the embedding vector based on the comparison. The system can redirect the communication session to a sub-unit of the telecommunications network service provider based on the identified intent classification.

Automated diagnosis and audit of telecommunication service provisioning

Errors in network service provisioning are upstream causes to service disruptions interruptions, and failures experienced by a telecommunications network’s subscribers. These challenges are overcome by the disclosed systems for diagnosing and auditing service provisioning errors in telecommunications networks. By addressing discrepancies between Customer Facing Services (CFS) as selected by network subscribers (e.g., voice calling, messaging, roaming, unlimited or limited broadband access) and the current states of network elements in the telecommunications network, the system ensures accurate service delivery. The system performs real-time diagnosis by comparing expected network service configurations, derived from queried subscriber CFS, with the actual network states or configurations through a reverse mapping process. The system's auditing process reduces operational costs and obviates existing techniques of manual inspection.

Resource classification layer for constant request verification in zero trust systems

A method is disclosed for managing access in a telecommunications network by utilizing a resource classification layer. The method involves receiving a request at a resource classification layer from a sender to obtain an access token for a receiver service. The sender is associated with a user role that has specific permissions and access rights corresponding to a data sensitivity threshold. The request includes a data payload. A classification value for the data payload is assigned using one or more resource classification models, which are trained on a log of past data payloads. A data sensitivity score is generated by comparing the classification value to a scale of classification values. The method then indicates whether the access token can be granted to the sender by comparing the data sensitivity score against the data sensitivity threshold to verify authorization.

Verified physical access of telecommunications network subscribers at third-party events or venues

The verification of individuals entering controlled locations such as events and venues is improved by using wireless devices as the entry tickets themselves, verifiable by a telecommunications network. The wireless device provides a network subscriber's identification information (e.g., a phone number) to an access point terminal, in response to an identification / authentication request from the access point terminal. In order to obtain the identification information to provide to the terminal, the wireless device verifies itself via the telecommunications network, which is capable of verifying the device's subscriber identity module (SIM) via cryptographic protocols. Thus, by verifying the device's SIM, the telecommunications network verifies the identity of the network subscriber operating the device, for purposes of sharing a phone number as an entry ticket. Because entry is controlled according to the device's own network-verifiable identity, third-parties that operate events or venues need not distribute entry tickets (e.g., physical or electronic) to individuals.
