Abstract
A method of detecting anomalies in a communication system includes: providing a first packet flow portion and a second packet flow portion; extracting samples of a symbolic packet feature associated with a traffic status of the first and second packet flow portions; computing from the extracted samples a first statistical concentration quantity and a second statistical concentration quantity of the symbolic feature associated with the first and second packet flow portions, respectively; computing from the concentration quantities a variation quantity representing a concentration change from the first packet flow portion to the second packet flow portion; comparing the variation quantity with a comparison value; and detecting an anomaly in the system in response to the comparison.
