Improving Traffic Forecasting Accuracy in Mobile Networks Through Machine Learning-Based Classification Techniques

2026

Abstract

Network traffic forecasting is one of the activities that employs machine learning techniques for efficient network administration.This activity tries to manage user demands, minimize service disruptions, monitor user behavior in applications, and detect any issues before they arise [1].A base station uses traffic predictions for intelligent power use.This issue is examined using base station sleeping, mobile edge computing, network slicing, and extra power during periods of high demand.Both short-term and long-term forecasts are used for traffic, although occasionally medium-term forecasting is also required.Forecasting the amount of internet traffic is one of the most crucial duties in the proactive administration of contemporary telecommunications networks.Enhancing traffic demand forecasting's precision and effectiveness can aid ISPs in creating sensible business plans and boosting the sector's financial gains.Additionally, very accurate forecasting findings can be useful for advanced network design, route planning, both immediate and long-term business capacity planning, and improved resource management.To put it another way, an accurate traffic prediction system may help ISPs manage their networks in advance and guarantee improved network quality of experience (QoS) [2].Regardless of their location or time, mobile networks enable users to stay connected at all times, particularly while they are outside.The availability of mobile connection services is still lacking,…

How strong is the evidence?

Evidence Hub reads this as a dataset, done in computer models (in silico), not in people. Its evidence level is 5 of 5 (Very low · case / narrative / animal / in vitro / in silico). Case reports, narrative reviews, and animal, cell or computer-model studies give the weakest evidence for human health.

How the five levels of evidence work. The level is assigned automatically from the abstract and can be wrong, so check the paper.
