MRO FOR 5G NETWORKS

Abstract:

A method and system to provide Mobility Robustness Optimization (MRO) in a NR network are described. The MRO parameters, use case, management services and information definition and procedures are described. A distributed self-organized network (D-SON) management function requests a producer of provisioning management service (MnS) to set targets, handover parameter ranges, and control information for an MRO function and then enables the MRO function for a non-enabled NR cell. The MRO function receives and analyses information from UEs to determine actions to optimize MRO performance. The D-SON management function collects and analyses MRO related performance measurements to evaluate the MRO performance, and updates the targets, handover parameter ranges, and/or control information when the MRO performance does not meet the targets.
