Abstract

The chapter highlights the state of art and provides a comprehensive investigation of current research efforts in the field of SONs in the upcoming 5G mobile communication networks. It goes through SON functionalities and discusses their cyclic behavior. Moreover, the chapter investigates in detail the construction of a unified SON framework to self-organize future networks, which are expected to have a high degree of heterogeneity. A major contribution in this context is the study of how various SON activities can be coordinated to guarantee systems' stability and reliability in addition to performance optimization. Furthermore, the chapter handles SON use cases currently present and those expected to appear in 5G networks going through their goals, operation, proposed solutions and research challenges.
