Purpose of tuning the network setting once the network is in the operating state. SON is more co-ordination between base stations. Not all use cases link. ### Quantum Tech Applications: - [[RACH Optimisation]] - Optimising the process when a User Equipment first accesses a network, Driving higher coverage and lower delays. **Transmission Power Optimisation** - [[Coverage and Capacity Optimisation]] - By adjusting antenna tilt, provides optimal and coverage while the network is operative - [[Interference Control ]] - Reduces the impact of the transmissions on neighbouring cells by optimising **Spectrum Allocation** / **Power Settings** to increase capacity and QoS - [[Energy Saving]] - Reduce Energy Consumption **Handover Parameter Optimisation** - [[Mobility Robustness Optimisation]] - Improving the handover process for better signal connectivity ([[OpenRAN]]) - [[Mobility Load Balancing]] - Detects load imbalances and re-assigns users within a zone to balance the load ![[Pasted image 20230215183627.png]] ![[Pasted image 20230215183503.png]] ![[Pasted image 20230215184038.png]] Collision between use cases may occur if the use cases happen to optimize the same parameters. If more than one use case is implemented, the improvement that it has on the network can be nullified by the degrading effect of another use case on the same feature. Three major conflicts have been identified: - Mobility Robustness with Mobility Load Balancing - Coverage and Capacity with Interference Control - Coverage and Capacity with Energy Saving #telco
