Abstract
The disclosure provides methods, apparatus and machine-readable mediums for the detection of sleeping cells in a cellular network. A method of detecting a sleeping cell in a cellular communication network comprises: monitoring power consumption of a radio transmission point of the cellular communication network; providing the power consumption of the radio transmission point as an input to a classification model, developed using a machine-learning algorithm; and obtaining an output from the classification model, the output classifying the radio transmission point as serving one of a sleeping cell and a non-sleeping cell.
