    Abstract: Embodiments of the present disclosure relate to an apparatus including means configured to perform: obtaining a measured channel frequency response, and a measured noise power spectral density for a line of a wired network susceptible to an impairment; deriving, in case of an indication of an impairment present on the line, from the measured channel frequency response and the measured noise power spectral density, a first theoretical noise representation for the line with the impairment and a second theoretical noise representation for the line without the impairment; and determining information indicative of a location of the impairment in the line, by processing the measured noise power spectral density, the first theoretical noise representation, and the second theoretical noise representation with a neural network.
