"New and emerging classes of mobile devices (smartphones, pc
data cards, USB modems, consumer devices with embedded
wireless, machine-to-machine, etc.) are fostering explosive
growth of wireless data usage by public and enterprise users. As
a result, wireless service providers have to simultaneously
support a growing number of higher-bandwidth data applications
and services on their networks. Improving OSS for mobile cellular
networks is always a goal of wireless carriers and an important
technology to deploy is the so called Self Organizing Network
(SON), which has been introduced as part of the 3GPP LTE
network framework. SON is expected to be deployed over time
and ultimately have a dramatically positive effect on network
operations and OSS as it will, among other things, automate
certain activates in order to save personnel costs and related
costs of materials. This research evaluates the implementation
and operation of SON.
