WE CLAIM:
1. A system (102) for visualizing timing advance (TA) data in a network (104),
comprising:
5 receive, by a receiving unit (212), TA data for an area of
interest from at least two sources (302a, 302b), wherein the TA data
comprises time delay measurements experienced by signals
traveling between the at least two sources (302a, 302b) and a base
station in the network (104);
10 store, by a processing module (216), in at least two databases
(210a, 210b), the received TA data in a unified format based on a
network type, wherein the unified format comprises a standardized
data structure for storing the received TA data based on the network
type;
15 categorize, by the processing module (216), the stored TA
data based on predetermined distance ranges;
generate, by the processing module (216), at least one of a
two-dimensional (2D) or three-dimensional (3D) visualization of the
categorized TA data; and
20 display, by a user interface module (214), the generated at
least one of the 2D or 3D visualization of the categorized TA data.
2. The system (102) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the network type comprises
at least one of a 4G network or a 5G network.

3. The system (102) as claimed in claim 1, wherein the receiving unit (212) is
configured to: determine whether the received TA data belongs to a 4G or
5G network; and select one of the at least two databases (210a, 210b) for
storing the received TA data based on the network type, wherein: a first
30 database (210a) is configured as a Long-Term Evolution (LTE) TA database
for storing the received TA data related to 4G network, and a second
database (210b) is configured as a New Radio (NR) TA database for storing
the received TA data related to 5G network.
