Self-Organizing Networks (SON) Challenges and Market Opportunities for 3G, LTE, and Beyond - 2014 Edition
M2 - Wed Mar 12, 7:31AM CDT
Research and Markets (http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4h3ppg/selforganizing) has announced the addition of the "Self-Organizing Networks (SON) Challenges and Market Opportunities for 3G, LTE, and Beyond, Fourth Edition" report to their offering. Mobile network operators are looking for more automation in order to efficiently manage their large networks, which consist of thousands of base stations with hundreds of settings each. The role of Self-organizing Networks (SON) is to enable efficient, and in some cases programmatic means of fine tuning cellular networks. SON can fix fundamental problems (i.e. the tire is out of alignment analogy), such as poor coverage and/or dropped calls in an area and it can also be used for short-term, real-time issues (and then potentially be put back the way the network was in the first place. For example, the network may need optimization locally for a specific event such as a sporting event or live show/concert. In all cases, SON is designed to support wireless carriers desire to provide a multitude of different services with high quality of experience for the end-user. Approximately 80-85% of global providers focus on SON only in the 3G portion of their networks today. This is because they want to first optimize what is stable and most of the network, while they work out other issues on 4G. The ultimate implementation of SON in 4G networks will bring many advantages. For example, 4G has something called Reserved Quality (talked about on 3G, but not really there) as a means of managing Quality of Service (QoS) and Quality of Experience (QoE). This represents a benefit of SON on LTE in terms of optimizing network to support the QoS/QoE metrics. Leading vendors, such as Amdocs (who acquired Celcite) recognize this and are building solutions for improving customer experience. This research evaluates SON capabilities, vendors, and solutions. It analyzes the function of SON relative to 3G and LTE and evaluates the benefits of deployment and operation. The report also discusses the future of SON beyond 4G. This research includes a forecast for overall OSS/BSS revenue. Key Topics Covered: 1 Introduction 2 SON Technology Overview 3 SON Use Cases and Current Market Status 4 Antenna Parameters and Antenna Tilt Cost Reduction 5 SON Business Value 6 SON Vendor Landscape 7 SON Provider Comparative Analysis 8 SON and RAN Optimization Market 2014-2019 9 Conclusions and Recommendations 10 Appendix Companies Mentioned - Actix - AIRCOM - AirHop - Celcite (Amdocs) - Cisco - Ericsson SON Solution - Huawei SON Solution - Motorola - Nokia-Siemens Networks SON Solution - Optimi Solutions - Qualcomm UltraSON - Xceed Technologies For more information visit http://www.researchandmarkets.com/research/4h...organizing
