Abstract(in Japanese) (See Japanese page)
Abstract(in English) Heterogeneous network (HetNet) has been considered as an attractive means of expanding mobile network capacity. In HetNet, small cell e-NodeBs (eNBs) are deployed in an existing macro cell area to effectively cover localized traffic hot spots. Concerns about such a network are the workload for the management of an increased number of small cell eNBs and quality problems between a macro cell and a small cell. Self-organizing networks (SON) effectively overcome these issues. SON is a set of functions for self-configuration and self-optimization of mobile networks, aiming to reduce their capital and operational expenditures and to provide higher communication qualities. In this paper, we introduce SON algorithms for Small cell eNB in Long Term Evolution (LTE) HetNet. Specifically, our Automatic Neighbor Relation (ANR), Mobility Robustness Optimization (MRO), and Coverage and Capacity Optimization (CCO) algorithms and their evaluation results are introduced. In addition, our three-dimensional simulator developed for evaluating the feasibility of SON in a realistic environment is also introduced.
