With SON, network administrators predefine a set of key performance indicators (KPIs) regarding QoS and other operational functions. Then, the network uses modules and algorithms to self-monitor and optimize its parameters, trying to achieve the predefined KPIs. This is considered as a closed loop control process, by which a network gains understanding of the operation environment and users’ behavior and adapts its parameters accordingly to achieve the intended performance goal, but at same time avoid any misconfiguration of parameters that may lead to service disturbances [2]. In the following subsection, we elaborate more on the features of SONs illustrated in Figure 2.1.
