Abstract Self-Organizing Network (SON) stands for a key concept characterizing the
behavior of the future mobile networks. The evolution of telecom infrastructures towards 5G …

Reference evapotranspiration (ET o) is considered as an essential component in
hydrological and agro meteorological processes. Its accurate estimation becomes an …

The fifth generation (5G) networks will support the rapid emergence of Internet of Things
(IoT) devices operating in a heterogeneous network (HetNet) system. These 5G-enabled IoT …

An inefficient utilization of network resources in a time-varying traffic environment often leads
to load imbalances, high call-blocking events and degraded quality of service (QoS). This …

Self-organizing network (SON) is a well-known approach to reduce the complexity and the
cost of cellular network management. It aims at replacing the manual configuration and …

5G network supports end-to-end logically isolated networks in the form of network slices,
catering to the needs of users of various primary network services, namely enhanced Mobile …

In this paper, a self-organizing cloud radio access network (C-RAN) is proposed, which
dynamically adapt to varying network capacity demands. A load prediction model is …

The growing demand for fast and reliable wireless services has led to the deployment of
more base stations, which has made manual optimization of base station parameters more …

It is anticipated that the future cellular networks will consist of an ultra-dense deployment of
complex heterogeneous Base Stations (BSs). Consequently, Self-Organizing Networks …

Self-Organizing Network (SON) has been introduced more than a decade by the Next
Generation Mobile Networks (NGMN) and later standardized by the 3rd Generation Partner …
