Abstract
A method and apparatus for predicting capacity utilization and preemptively reallocating channels in a spectrum-controlled network such as a Citizen's Band Radio Service (CBRS) network. The network includes a plurality of Base Stations/Access Points (BS/APs) which monitor RF resource usage of the channels at each BS/AP and provide time series data relating to capacity utilization over a period of time. The data is analyzed, and patterns are identified in the collected capacity utilization data using Artificial Intelligence (AI) techniques. Looking forward, capacity utilization is predicted using AI techniques. Responsive to the capacity utilization predictions, the channels pre-emptively reallocated among BS/APs. The enterprise network provides feedback regarding prediction accuracy, which is utilized in a machine learning process to modify the models and provide greater prediction accuracy. The prediction apparatus includes a capacity utilization module and a training/retraining module, which may be located remotely from the enterprise network.
