RAN Cell Degradation Detection rAPP

Automated Degradation Detection and Cell Performance Evaluation for 5G Networks

Solution Overview

Intelligent Cell Health & Degradation Analysis

In 5G networks, cell degradation rarely occurs suddenly. It develops gradually — small, persistent declines in throughput, signal quality, or resource utilization that individually appear insignificant but collectively erode network performance and compromise SLA commitments. RAN Cell Degradation Detection rApp is purpose-built to identify these patterns early, enabling operators to act decisively before degradation reaches the end user.

Cell Health Scoring

Calculates a weighted composite score (0–100) per cell with a 5-tier classification — providing a clear and measurable assessment of each cell's operational health.

Degradation Detection

Identifies performance decline using three distinct detection rules — ensuring no degradation pattern goes undetected.

U-NMS Integration

Deployed within the Unified Network Management System alongside other rApps through a single portal.

"Detect degradation before it reaches your users — from subtle KPI shifts to silent multi-dimensional deterioration, no pattern goes unnoticed."
