Aspects of the present invention disclose a method for identifying indications of an attack on a cellular network. The method includes one or more processors scanning a geographic area of a cellular network, wherein the geographic area includes a plurality of transceivers of the cellular network. The method further includes identifying a symptom that impacts a transceiver of the cellular network based at least in part on connectivity between a computing device and the plurality transceivers of the cellular network. The method further includes performing one or more assessments on the transceiver of the cellular network impacted by the symptom. The method further includes determining whether the symptom of the cellular network is associated with an attack on the cellular network based at least in part on the one or more assessments.

An indication is received. The indication is for a wireless communication being made by a computing device. Responsive to receiving the indication, an optimized location to make the wireless communication is determined based on a location of the computing device and an optimized locations list. The optimized location is communicated to the computing device making the wireless communication.

A multi-layer network planning system can determine a set of regenerator sites (“RSs”) that have been found to cover all paths among a set of nodes of an optical layer of a multi-layer network and can determine a set of candidate RSs in the optical layer for use by the links between a set of nodes of an upper layer, wherein each RS can be selected as a candidate RS for the links. The system can determine a binary path matrix for the links between the set of nodes of the upper layer. The system can determine a min-cost matrix that includes a plurality of min-cost paths. The system can determine a best RS from the set of candidate RSs and can move the best RS from the set of candidate RSs into the set of RSs for the links. The system can then update the binary path matrix.

The technologies described herein are generally directed to validating the integration of new carrier components at base station equipment, e.g., in a fifth generation (5G) network or other next generation networks. For example, a method described herein can include, confirming based on installation data, an installation milestone of an installation of a carrier component at base station equipment, resulting in a confirmed milestone. The method can further include, based on the confirmed milestone, identifying for an evaluation of the installation of the carrier component, a criterion associated with a characteristic of operation of the base station equipment. Further, the method can include based on a result of evaluation of the installation, sending, by the network equipment, a validation signal to the base station equipment indicating that the installation of the carrier component is validated.
