shadows and interference. Occasionally, software parameters such as handoff thresholds and cell-power budgets are also adjusted. While hardware parameters are easily set during network installation, they are hard to change afterward. As a result, the optimization with respect to hardware parameters occurs during network planning and deployment, and it is only repeated in areas where performance problems or infrastructure upgrades are required. Since it is performed as a singular event, the optimization process is

The increase in complexity of managing new third-generation (3G)

In order to meet demanding performance objectives in Long TermLong Term Evolution standard. Through its E-UTRAN, LTE is expected to substantially improve end-user throughputs and sector capacity and reduce user plane latency, bringing significantly improved user experience with full mobility.
