DETECTION AND REPORTING OF NETWORK IMPAIRMENTS

摘要

Systems, methods, and computer-readable media are disclosed for providing terminal devices configured to collect network performance data, communicate the network performance data to one or more neighboring devices, and analyze the collected performance data and/or the received network performance data to identify anomalous data. The anomalous data may be communicated to a network management system which may, in turn, analyze the anomalous data to identify one or more network impairments. Additionally, or alternatively, a terminal device may be configured to identify a network impairment by correlating anomalous collected data to data received from neighboring terminal devices.

1. A method, comprising:
collecting, by a terminal device comprising one or more computer processors, network performance data indicative of at least one of: i) one or more performance characteristics of one or more components of the terminal device or ii) one or more network transmission characteristics; analyzing, by the terminal device, the network performance data based at least in part on at least one of: i) one or more threshold network performance criteria or ii) network performance data received from at least one neighboring terminal device of one or more neighboring terminal devices, to identify anomalous network performance data; and communicating, by the terminal device, at least a portion of the network performance data to the one or more neighboring terminal devices.
