Radio Access Network (RAN) Optimization

RAN Optimization

Any operator can only manage their Radio Access Network (RAN) and have visibility based only on what their base station vendor can provide. Managing the RAN effectively and to be able to fully optimize its capacity requires business intelligence coupled with a capability to dynamically control users and network resources.

CommVerge together with its vendor partners provides unique solutions that would assist operators in collecting, sorting, analyzing and visualize the performance of the RAN, based upon the granularity of the metrics/counters that the base station vendor deliver to the operator. The unique solution combines the RAN information with data from other other network elements such as AAA (Authentication, Authorization and Accounting) and DPI (Deep Packet Ispection) enabling delivery of business  intelligence for a better understanding of usage behavior and how it affects the RAN performance. This knowledge can then be used on how to effectively manage, optimize capacity, and maintain a quality of experience for its subscribers.

Features:

  Minimize the interference and optimize the modulations of a given sector. Performs dynamic quality control of users in a given sector so that the users share the limited capacity in the most optimum way.

Benefits:
  Significant savings in customer support cost and increased revenue per base station.
  Capacity roll-out can be postponed for months until warranted.
  Reduced churn with higher customer satisfaction.
