Cell outage management in LTE networks
conference paper
Cell outage management is a functionality aiming to automatically detect and mitigate outages that occur in radio networks due to unexpected failures. We envisage that future radio networks autonomously detect an outage based on measurements, from e.g., user equipment and base stations, and alter the configuration of surrounding radio base stations in order to compensate for the outage-induced coverage and service quality degradations and satisfy the operator-specified performance requirements as much as possible. In this paper we present a framework for cell outage management and outline the key components necessary to detect and compensate outages as well as to develop and evaluate the required algorithms. © 2009 IEEE.
