  • Patent number: 11589246
    Abstract: A method of managing distributed self-organizing network and base station is disclosed. The base station includes but not limited to a transmitter, a receiver, and a processor coupled to the transmitter and the receiver. The processor is configured at least to: create a management interface for receiving configuration information from surrounding base stations; subscribe the configuration information and store the configuration information into a table; receive, via the receiver through the management interface, the configuration information from a base station of the surrounding base stations; update the table based on the configuration information received from the base station of the surrounding base stations; and execute a distributed self-organizing network (DSON) algorithm comprising one of capacity and coverage optimization (CCO) algorithm, automatic neighbor relation (ANR) algorithm, and physical cell id (PCI) algorithm.
