Self-care self-tuning wireless communication system
First Claim
1. A method, comprising:
- receiving, from a mobile wireless device, a care request that includes a user description of a request for service that identifies a problem experienced by the user concerning operation of the mobile wireless device and/or a wireless communication network;
in response to receipt of the care request, extracting a cohort from a current overall population of mobile wireless devices;
creating a service ticket based on the care request;
correlating the problem with data associated with one or more members of the cohort, wherein the correlation is based on wireless communication network analytics performed with respect to the cohort;
identifying a probable cause for the problem based on the correlating process;
creating, and transmitting to the mobile wireless device, information identifying the probable cause, and a diagnosis for the problem; and
when an indication is received from the mobile wireless device that the user has accepted the diagnosis, augmenting a history of device states and network states associated with the cohort with information concerning a configuration change made as a result of user acceptance of the diagnosis, wherein the configuration change is associated with the mobile wireless device and/or with the wireless communication network.

Abstract
A customer self-service tuning system assists a mobile device user in adjusting his network settings and device configuration. Device, network and performance metrics are stored for a population. Over time all of these suggest changes in the device or network that change measured performance. The potential improvement(s) are presented to the user for selection. Performance measurements are taken and the user can choose to go forward with the new configuration or to revert. Each time a user requests self-care service, a new cohort is extracted from the then current overall population and analyzed for similarity to the user at that point in time. Each time an improvement is selected, the history of device states and network states is augmented. Identified variances are transformed into an action plan specific to a user and implemented on the device or network upon concurrence.
