Individual KPI Threshold Management for Mobile Network Optimization
Find Innovative SolutionsGenerate Solutions
Solution Overview
Problem
Current network performance indicators (KPIs) do not effectively manage network resources to meet individual mobile device requirements, leading to suboptimal user experiences due to lack of proactive adjustments based on real-time performance metrics.
Innovation Solution
A method and system that determine warning alarm thresholds for KPIs associated with mobile devices, sending alert messages to modify network devices, such as adjusting power output, antenna usage, or redirecting connections, to maintain service level agreements and improve user experience.
Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles
Engineering Contradiction Analysis
1Reliability
If traditional KPI management is used, then network operations can continue with existing resources, but user experience and network performance cannot be optimized for individual devices
Solution Approach 1:
The patent segments network performance management by creating individual KPI profiles for each mobile device rather than using uniform network-wide thresholds. Each device receives customized warning alarm thresholds based on its specific service level agreements and performance requirements, enabling tailored performance optimization while maintaining overall network stability.
2Reliability
If proactive network resource modifications are implemented, then user experience and service level agreements can be maintained, but system complexity increases due to real-time monitoring and alert processing
Solution Approach 1:
The patent implements preliminary action by establishing predetermined warning alarm thresholds for each device's KPIs before performance degradation occurs. When metrics approach these thresholds, alert messages are sent in advance to trigger proactive network resource modifications, preventing service level agreement violations rather than reacting to failures after they occur.
Solution Approach 2:
The system implements continuous feedback loops by monitoring KPIs in real-time, comparing them against device-specific thresholds, and sending alert messages when thresholds are approached. This feedback mechanism enables dynamic adjustment of network resources based on actual performance conditions, maintaining reliability while managing complexity through automated closed-loop control.
3Loss of time
If individualized KPI monitoring is implemented, then performance issues can be detected earlier, but the quantity of alert messages and processing load increases
Solution Approach 1:
The patent applies local quality by customizing warning alarm thresholds for each individual device based on its specific service level agreements, usage patterns, and performance requirements. Rather than using uniform thresholds across the network, each device receives locally optimized thresholds that reduce false alarms while maintaining early detection capabilities for actual performance issues.
Data Source
AI summary
Individually unique key performance indicator management may be utilized to enhance performance in a network. A warning alarm threshold for a key performance indicator associated with a mobile device may be determined. And upon receiving an alert message indicating that the warning alarm threshold has been exceeded, a network device may be modified.
