Analytics-Assisted, Multi-agents, Self-Learning, Self-managing, Flexible and Adaptive Framework for Intelligent SON

摘要

The strengths of alternative self-organizing-network (SON) techniques can be leveraged by deriving a compromise result from alternative results generated by the respective SON techniques. In particular, the compromise result may be derived from the alternative results based on reputations assigned to alternative SON techniques used to generate the respective results. The compromise result may be calculated based on weighted averages of the alternative results (e.g., solutions, diagnoses, predicted values, etc.), or on weighted averages of parameters specified by the alternative results (e.g., parameter adjustments, underlying causes, KPI values, etc.). In such an embodiment, the weights applied to the alternative results may be based on the reputations of the corresponding SON techniques used to generate the respective alternative results.

1. A non-transitory computer-readable medium storing programming for execution by a processor, the programming including instructions to:
receive information from devices in a wireless network during a first period; generate alternative optimization solutions for the wireless network using alternative self-optimization techniques based on the information received during the first period, wherein at least some of the alternative optimization solutions specify different values for adjusting one or more wireless configuration parameters of the wireless network; calculate a compromise solution between the alternative optimization solutions based on reputations of the alternative self-optimization techniques used to generate the respective alternative optimization solutions; and send the compromise solution to one or more access points in the wireless network, the compromise solution being used in the wireless network during a second period.
