Abstract

An approach for change roll out in wireless networks that utilizes a diverse set of features, such as software/hardware configuration, radio parameters, user population, mobility patterns, network topology and automatically identifies the test locations that would improve the predictability between the performance impacts during testing and network-wide deployment. Through automated and effective analysis of a wide variety of features, the approach for change roll out in wireless networks reflects the impacts observed during testing and predicts the performance of the post-test wide-scale deployment.
