A method by a first wireless device, for determining a status of a first cell is described herein. The first wireless device operates in a communications network. The first wireless device sends a request to a plurality of second wireless devices operating in the communications network. The plurality of second wireless devices is within radio range. The request inquires whether or not the first cell is in sleeping state. The first wireless device receives, in response to the sent request, one or more responses from the plurality of second wireless devices. The first wireless device determines whether or not the first cell is in sleeping state, based on the received responses. The methods by a network node and another wireless device receiving an indication indicating a result of the determination are also described.

First wireless device, first network node, second wireless device, and methods performed thereby, for determining a status of a cell

A method and system for predicting a state of a cell in a radio access network are described herein. The method includes obtaining information of the cell, determining one or more sets of conditions based on the information and predicting that the cell will enter a sleeping state when at least one set of the one or more sets of conditions is fulfilled. The method further includes outputting an action to prevent the cell from entering the sleeping state based on the probability and a number of wireless devices currently connected to the cell.

Method and system for predicting a state of a cell in radio access network

Embodiments described herein provided methods and apparatus for controlling switching a power supply of a first network node between an electrical power grid and an alternative power supply in which the first network node is configured to transmit data to a second network node over a data transmission link. The method includes receiving first information indicative of a predicted decrease in a transmission rate of data transmitted by the first network node over the data transmission link. Responsive to receiving the first information, a first request is transmitted to the first network node to switch the power supply of the first network node from the electrical power grid to the alternative power supply.

Methods and apparatus for controlling the power supply of a network node

A method for predicting cell accessibility issues for a mobile network. The method includes receiving a set of metrics from the mobile network, processing a set of key performance indicators (KPIs) derived from the set of metrics in an ensemble machine learning model, the ensemble machine learning model including an RRC model, an RACH model, an ERAB model, and an Ssignaling model to generate at least one cell accessibility degradation prediction and a confidence score, and applying a root cause mapping to the at least one cell accessibility degradation prediction and the confidence score to identify at least one recommended action to correct a correlated cell accessibility issue.
