Abstract
Techniques and mechanisms for detecting and deducing of urgent messages in low-power and lossy networks (LLNs) using a correlation analysis of the nodes within a network and machine learning (ML) models. Utilizing these techniques, a field network director (FND) of the network can determine neighboring devices within the network. ML models may be utilized to determine that based upon receipt of a power outage notification (PON) message and/or a power restoration notification (PRN) message from nodes, neighboring nodes of the nodes may also have suffered a power outage and/or a subsequent power restoration, even if the FND did not receive a corresponding PON message and/or a corresponding PRN message from the neighboring nodes of the network. Thus, loss of power and subsequent power restoration may be handled for large numbers of neighboring nodes within the network, even when only a few PON messages and/or subsequent PRN messages are received.
