With the current explosion in network traffic, and mounting
pressure on operators’ business case, Self-Organizing Networks
(SON) play a crucial role. They are conceived to minimize human
intervention in engineering processes and at the same time improve
system performance to maximize Return-on-Investment (ROI) and
secure customer loyalty.

Written by leading experts in the planning and optimization of
Multi-Technology and Multi-Vendor wireless networks, this book
describes the architecture of Multi-Technology SON for GSM, UMTS
and LTE, along with the enabling technologies for SON planning,
optimization and healing. This is presented mainly from a
technology point of view, but also covers some critical business
aspects, such as the ROI of the proposed SON functionalities and
Use Cases.

This book will appeal to network planners, optimization
engineers, technical/strategy managers with operators and
R&D/system engineers at infrastructure and software vendors.
It will also be a useful resource for postgraduate students and
researchers in automated wireless network planning and
optimization.
