Appl. No.:

12/015336

Inventors:

Kanglung Wong - Overland Park KS, US
Amy L. Welsh - Shawnee KS, US

Assignee:

Sprint Communications Company L.P. - Overland Park KS

International Classification:

H04L 12/26

US Classification:

370232

Abstract:

A method of operating a bandwidth projection system is disclosed, wherein the method comprises determining an initial shared bandwidth projection for an access node having an initial bandwidth capacity, generating a plurality of guaranteed bandwidth projections for the access node, determining an aggregate bandwidth projection comprising the plurality of guaranteed bandwidth projections and the initial shared bandwidth projection, and processing the aggregate bandwidth projection to determine if the aggregate bandwidth projection exceeds the initial bandwidth capacity of the access node.

Abstract:

A method of operating a bandwidth projection system comprises receiving a historical dataset associated with a customer wherein the historical dataset indicates bandwidth usage during a historical time period, processing the historical dataset with a plurality of model applications to generate a plurality of bandwidth models based on the historical dataset, selecting a one model from the plurality of models based on a comparison to the historical dataset, generating a bandwidth projection using the one model wherein the bandwidth projection indicates a bandwidth usage during a future time period, and transferring the bandwidth projection to the customer.
