This article surveys the literature over the period of the last decade on the emerging field of
self organisation as applied to wireless cellular communication networks. Self organisation …

Adjusting antenna tilts is one of the most powerful techniques to solve coverage and
capacity problems in cellular networks. In this paper, a novel self-tuning algorithm for …

Antenna tilt is one of the most important performance tuning parameters of a cellular
network, since it has a strong impact on the inter-site interference level in the system. In this …

In future mobile communications systems, network management procedures must be
upgraded to consider user quality of experience (QoE) to deal with service diversity. In this …

In cellular networks, balancing the throughput among users is important to achieve a uniform
Quality-of-Service (QoS). This can be accomplished using a variety of cross-layer …

In a mobile communications network, the uneven spatial distribution of traffic demand can be
dealt with by redefining cell service areas. When resizing cells, network operators often aim …

For network planning and optimization purposes, mobile operators make use of Key
Performance Indicators (KPIs), computed from Performance Measurements (PMs), to …

In cellular networks, cell range is a key parameter for network planning and optimization.
With the advent of new radio access technologies, it is not easy to obtain a good estimate of …

In cellular systems, antenna tilt and transmit power are two most important parameters for
tuning the performance. An optimal antenna tilt has strong impact in interference mitigation …

This paper proposes some modifications of the COST 231 Walfisch-Ikegami (WI) model to
reflect the information related to building and terrain heights of practical environments …
