Inspired by swarm intelligence observed in social species, the artificial self-organized networking (SON) systems are expected to exhibit some intelligent features (eg, flexibility …
Abstract Self-Organizing Network (SON) stands for a key concept characterizing the behavior of the future mobile networks. The evolution of telecom infrastructures towards 5G …
In response to the new challenges in the design and operation of communication networks, and taking inspiration from how living beings deal with complexity and scalability, in this …
In this paper, we present a novel cell outage management (COM) framework for heterogeneous networks with split control and data planes-a candidate architecture for …
The need for load balancing will be more significant in fifth generation mobile network and beyond due to the massive upsurge in the quantity of users and rising use of small cell sizes …
