Abstract

With the widespread application of 5G technology, network traffic has increased unprecedentedly, which has a significant impact on network traffic management. Traditional network traffic prediction methods rely on time series analysis of seasonal patterns, ignoring the inherent spatial correlation of network traffic. Graph convolutional networks (GCN) learn spatial correlations. By combining GCN with time series models, spatiotemporal features can be captured simultaneously, thereby improving prediction accuracy. This paper introduces a new network traffic prediction model TSA-NTP based on the attention mechanism, which aims to more effectively capture spatiotemporal features in complex network environments.
