Predicting cellular traffic in modern metropolis is particularly challenging because of the tremendous temporal and spatial dynamics introduced by diverse user Internet behaviours and frequent user mobility citywide. In this paper, we characterize and investigate the root causes of such dynamics in cellular traffic through a big cellular usage dataset covering 1.5 million users and 5,929 cell towers in a major city of China. We reveal intensive spatio-temporal dependency even among distant cell towers, which is largely overlooked in previous works. To explicitly characterize and effectively model the spatio-temporal dependency of urban cellular traffic, we propose a novel decomposition of in-cell and inter-cell data traffic, and apply a graph-based deep learning approach to accurate cellular traffic prediction. Experimental results demonstrate that our method consistently outperforms the state-of-the-art time-series based approaches and we also show through an example study how the decomposition of cellular traffic can be used for event inference.","PeriodicalId":6462,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 25th International Conference on Network Protocols (ICNP)","volume":"14 1","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2017-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"80067855","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Network upgrades should be performed with extreme caution since millions of users heavily depend on the cellular networks for a wide range of day to day tasks, including emergency and alert notifications. Before upgrading the entire network, it is important to conduct field evaluation of upgrades. Field evaluations are typically cumbersome and can be time consuming; however if done correctly they can help alleviate a lot of the deployment issues in terms of service quality degradation. The choice and number of field test locations have significant impacts on the time-to-market as well as confidence in how well various network upgrades will work out in the rest of the network. In this paper, we propose a novel approach — Reflection to automatically determine where to conduct the upgrade field tests in order to accurately identify important features that affect the upgrade. We demonstrate the effectiveness of Reflection using extensive evaluation based on real traces collected from a major US cellular network as well as synthetic traces.","PeriodicalId":6462,"journal":{"name":"2017 IEEE 25th International Conference on Network Protocols (ICNP)","volume":"39 1","pages":"1-10"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2016-06-14","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"90842386","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
