Abstract
A method of identifying idiosyncratic performance-outliers amongst a plurality of cell-sites in a wireless network, the method comprising: selecting cell-sites; selecting, for each cell-site, at least one sector-carrier; selecting, for each sector-carrier, one or more KPIs; determining, for each KPI, a historical value and a recent value based on samples of the KPI taken during a historical period and a recent period, respectively, the recent period being a subset of the historical period; determining, for each KPI, a delta representing a difference between the historical value and the recent value thereby determining KPI-specific sets of deltas, respectively; normalizing each set of deltas; selecting, for each set of deltas, a KPI-specific threshold; comparing, for each set of deltas, members thereof against the corresponding threshold; and identifying, for each set of deltas, which combinations of cell-site and sector-carrier are KPI-specific performance outliers based on the comparison, respectively.
