scope:
The present document describes the requirements and architecture for the Self Organizing Network (SON) functions within the OAM system. SON includes:
Provision of infrastructure for SON, in the OAM system
• Enabling SON operations
• Provide SON capabilities (each of which can either be distributed or centralised) within the OAM infrastructure, including their management
• Access to SON relevant attributes
• Identification of SON relevant Measurements
• Access to and transfer of SON relevant measurements
• Transfer of SON relevant alarms
Define necessary Interface IRPs
- the automation of neighbour relation lists in E-UTRAN, UTRAN and between different 3GPP Radio Access Technologies,
- self establishment of a new eNodeB in the network,
- self-configuration and self-healing of eNodeBs,
- automated coverage and capacity optimisation,
- optimisation of parameters due to troubleshooting,
- continuous optimisation due to dynamic changes in the network,
- automated handover optimisation,
- optimisation of QoS related radio parameters.
The SON concept and architecture are described in clause 4. The high-level requirements for SON are defined in clause 5. Use cases for SON are described in clause 5.
