SON
Overview of SON (Self Organizing Network)
- Improving the Efficiency of Network Deployment and Operation
- Collects and analyzes data in order to reconfigure the network
- Reduces field survey frequency with the use of measurement instruments
- User Quality Improvement
- Quality enhanced by self-optimization and self-healing
SON Simulator
NEC's SON solution is to incorporate a radio planning tool into self-optimization. Doing this enables an operator to quickly find the best configuration while gradually iterating self-optimization. Specifically, the operator can plan a configuration change using self-optimization functions on radio qualities created by a radio propagation simulator.
- Features of LTE SON 3-dimentional Simulator
- An example of simulation in Yokohama, Japan
- Automatic optimization of neighbor lists prevents dropped calls
- Base stations save energy by hour-dependent sleep controls
