Abstract

Disclosed are systems and methods that provide a decision-intelligence (DI)-based, computerized framework for automatically and dynamically managing fiber assets within a distributed ledger. The framework operates via predicted insights into how a fiber optic network, inclusive of the fiber assets as a whole and/or individualized, can be optimized to provide accurate, efficient and/or reliable network facilities for associated entities. OTDR data can be utilized by the framework to perform maintenance, troubleshooting and/or to ensure the network operates efficiently. Accordingly the framework can operate to manage, analyze and utilize such forms and/or types of data to curate computerized fiber optic solutions for the fiber optic networks and/or the entities that are operating therefrom, which can be effectuated via the implementation of the disclosed systems and methods within a fiber optics network infrastructure.

Claims (53)

1 . A method comprising:

identifying Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) data, the OTDR data corresponding to a set of assets associated with a fiber optic network;

analyzing the OTDR data, and determining, based on the analysis, a first set of files and a second set of files, the first set of files comprising metadata associated with the set of assets from the OTDR data, the second set of files comprising long term evaluations of the set of assets;

compiling, based on the first set of files and the second set of files, a non-fungible token (NFT); and

storing, in a distributed ledger, the NFT.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

receiving a request related to the NFT, the request comprising information related to a fiber asset within the set of assets and a service to be performed via the fiber optic network;

analyzing, via an artificial intelligence (AI) model, the NFT based on the request;

determining, based on the AI-based analysis, a prediction of implementation of the service related to the fiber asset; and

outputting, in response to the request, the prediction in accordance with a smart contract associated with the NFT.

3 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising the AI model being a large language model (LLM).

4 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising the prediction corresponding to an output selected from a group consisting of: modification of the fiber asset, identification of an issue related to the fiber asset, mitigation of the issue and executable instructions for performance of the service.

5 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

updating a location of the distributed ledger based on the output.

6 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising the metadata comprising information selected from a group consisting of: fiber length, attenuation, event points and test parameters.

7 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising converting the OTDR data into the first set of files in a .JSON file format.

8 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising the long term evaluations of the set of assets being based on power and distance data associated with the set of assets.

9 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising converting the OTDR data into the second set of files in a. DAT file format.

10 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising the OTDR data being in. SOR format.

11 . A system comprising:

a processor configured to:

identify Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) data, the OTDR data corresponding to a set of assets associated with a fiber optic network;

analyze the OTDR data, and determine, based on the analysis, a first set of files and a second set of files, the first set of files comprising metadata associated with the set of assets from the OTDR data, the second set of files comprising long term evaluations of the set of assets;

compile, based on the first set of files and the second set of files, a non-fungible token (NFT); and

store, in a distributed ledger, the NFT.

12 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

receive a request related to the NFT, the request comprising information related to a fiber asset within the set of assets and a service to be performed via the fiber optic network;

analyze, via an artificial intelligence (AI) model, the NFT based on the request;

determine, based on the AI-based analysis, a prediction of implementation of the service related to the fiber asset; and

output, in response to the request, the prediction in accordance with a smart contract associated with the NFT.

13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the processor is further configured, such that the prediction corresponds to an output selected from a group consisting of: modification of the fiber asset, identification of an issue related to the fiber asset, mitigation of the issue and executable instructions for performance of the service.

14 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the processor is further configured to:

update a location of the distributed ledger based on the output.

15 . The system of claim 11 , wherein the processor is further configured, such that:

the metadata comprising information selected from a group consisting of: fiber length, attenuation, event points and test parameters; and

the long term evaluations of the set of assets being based on power and distance data associated with the set of assets.

16 . A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium tangibly encoded with computer-executable instructions that when executed by a device, perform a method comprising:

identifying Optical Time-Domain Reflectometer (OTDR) data, the OTDR data corresponding to a set of assets associated with a fiber optic network;

analyzing the OTDR data, and determining, based on the analysis, a first set of files and a second set of files, the first set of files comprising metadata associated with the set of assets from the OTDR data, the second set of files comprising long term evaluations of the set of assets;

compiling, based on the first set of files and the second set of files, a non-fungible token (NFT); and

storing, in a distributed ledger, the NFT.

17 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 16 , further comprising:

receiving a request related to the NFT, the request comprising information related to a fiber asset within the set of assets and a service to be performed via the fiber optic network;

analyzing, via an artificial intelligence (AI) model, the NFT based on the request;

determining, based on the AI-based analysis, a prediction of implementation of the service related to the fiber asset; and

outputting, in response to the request, the prediction in accordance with a smart contract associated with the NFT.

18 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , further comprising the prediction corresponding to an output selected from a group consisting of:

modification of the fiber asset, identification of an issue related to the fiber asset, mitigation of the issue and executable instructions for performance of the service.

19 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 17 , further comprising:

updating a location of the distributed ledger based on the output.

20 . The non-transitory computer-readable storage medium of claim 16 , further comprising:

the metadata comprising information selected from a group consisting of: fiber length, attenuation, event points and test parameters; and

the long term evaluations of the set of assets being based on power and distance data associated with the set of assets.
