Coverage and capacity optimization of self-managed future internet wireless networks

Abstract

Future Internet network management systems are expected to incorporate self-x capabilities in order to tackle the increased management needs that cannot be addressed through human intervention. Towards this end, Self-NET developed a self-management framework based on the introduction of cognitive capabilities in network elements. In this paper, the experimentation platform for "Coverage and Capacity Optimization of Self-managed Future Internet Wireless Network", incorporating the self-management framework of Self-NET, is presented. © 2010 Springer-Verlag.
