Network and System Performance Management for Next Generation Networks

subject

description

The physical and logical structures of next generation network and service environment is complex and requires increasingly sophisticated and complicated tools to be fully controllable and well managed. The main problem that has risen is that the old telemanagement model has not enough flexibility to manage rapidly and constantly changing network environment. 3G and 4G networks are basically IP based and the knowledge of IP type traffic management is somewhat new and challenging to telecom vendors. The present way of controlling and managing telecom systems is to use Non Real Time off-line PM (Performance Monitoring) and tools. Time periods between tuning can now be some days to some weeks or even months. Modern 3/4G networks actually need constant real time control to overcome for example fast and unpredictable video streaming or call type traffic bursts. To ease the difficult situation and solve the problem we have studied and developed a new control and management concepts and methods to monitor, control and manage in real time any magnitude of network and system environments. This paper presents the basic concept of the management system in big operator environments consisting of any kind of network elements.
