Abstract
A method for detecting cell positioning anomalies is disclosed. Control plane signaling data packets are collected associated with multiple cells of a communications network. Distance and azimuth values for individual communication sessions are calculated for each cell. A machine learning model is executed using various communication parameters as input to generate a classification for each cell. A list identifying which cells are experiencing anomalies is generated.
