System and method for monitoring objects of interest including persons in an indoor or outdoor scene with high accuracy, strong privacy protection, high security, low volume data transmission and storage. The system includes: an embedded sensing device with multiple sensors and microprocessor(s) with built-in artificial intelligence as an end unit with parametric outputs, a controller that aggregate parametric outputs from multiple end units with local intelligence and configurable control outputs, and an optional gateway that aggregates multiple controllers output and connect with the network, cloud and/or human interface. The embedded sensing devices can capture data of the scene through multiple sensors with different functions and technologies; detect and track the objects of interest including persons; analyze features of the objects of interest; detect event and behavior associated with the detected objects or persons of interest based on the features and/or events; and only provide these parametric outputs to controller.

Multi-channel sensing system with embedded processing

A method and apparatus for managing network resource consumption. In various embodiments, excessive resource consumption within a network such as a Long Term Evolution (LTE) wireless network attributed to one or more user devices (UDs) is constrained by adjusting a Policy Control and Charging (PCC) rule associated with a network element serving the UD such that the corresponding network resource consumption level is reduced.

Method and apparatus for managing mobile resource usage

A method and apparatus for analyzing mobile services delivery to provide a coherent, path-based awareness of the mobile services and the corresponding underlying transport elements supporting each service or path. In various embodiments, configuration information, status information and connections information associated with elements within a network such as a Long Term Evolution (LTE) wireless network are used to help infer or determine the connections between network elements to be managed.

Method and apparatus for analyzing mobile services delivery

A method and apparatus for rapidly discovering unknown or unmanaged portions of network using hints defining possible transport layer infrastructure topology and the like.

Method and apparatus for hint-based discovery of path supporting infrastructure

A method and apparatus for auditing mobile services delivery to provide a coherent, path-based awareness of the quality level of the mobile services and the corresponding underlying transport elements supporting each service or path. In various embodiments, service or connection audits triggered within a network such as a 4G Long Term Evolution (LTE) wireless network result in the execution of one or more test sequences adapted to provide service, connection or other information pertaining to the network or the supported mobile services.

Method and apparatus for auditing 4G mobility networks

Various exemplary embodiments relate to a method and related network node including one or more of the following: receiving a selection of a configuration template and a second network node to serve a first network node, the configuration template including at least one template field; receiving at least one value for the at least one template field of the configuration template; configuring the first network node according to the configuration template and the at least one value; receiving, in the network management system, configured device information from the first network node; using the configured device information to identify at least one configuration operation to perform on the second network node to provide connectivity to the first network node; generating at least one configuration module for performing the at least one configuration operation; and applying the at least one configuration module to the second network node.

Rapid provisioning of network devices using automated configuration

A method and apparatus for determining a path supporting a mobile session to identify the underlying transport elements supporting the path. In various embodiments mobile session tracing is implemented within a network such as a Long Term Evolution (LTE) wireless network by determining elements in a path supporting a mobile session of a user equipment (UE) having an specific identifier, such as an IP address or terminal identification number.
