Adaptive signaling for network performance measurement, access, and control

摘要

Systems and methods are provided for initiation, use, access, and control of functionality of a network. In one aspect, the systems and methods can be utilized to generate information defining signaling or control performance and operational characteristics associated with the functionality in a variety of network environments. In another aspect, based on such information, adaptive signaling can be utilized to monitor, analyze and detect specific signaling signatures associated with the functionality. Managing signaling or control messages in response to information collected by monitoring and analyzing the adaptive signaling permits originating or requesting the functionality without conventional operation of a network component.

主权项

1. A method, comprising:
transmitting a first plurality of control messages associated with a pre-determined functionality of a network; receiving a second plurality of control messages associated with the predetermined functionality of the network; monitoring transmission performance of the first plurality of control messages and the second plurality of control messages; determining operational information associated with a signaling network based at least on an outcome of monitoring the transmission performance of the first plurality of control messages and the second plurality of control messages; and generating one or more network signaling events (NSEs) comprising at least one of the first plurality of control messages based at least on the operational information, wherein each of the one or more NSEs comprise a first control message and a second control message, wherein the first control message and the second control message are separated by a time span determined based on the operational information.
