Search for: [Description = "The paper discusses quality of service in LTE and LTE\-A networks seen as a challenge that can be met with Self\- Organizing Networks \(SON\) functionalities. The SON concepts have been included in the LTE \(E\-UTRAN\) standards since the first release of the LTE technology. Self\-optimization functionalities will monitor and analyze performance measurements, notifications, and self\-test results and will automatically trigger re\-configuration actions on the affected network nodes when necessary. The SON specifications have been built over the existing 3GPP network management architecture, the ultimate implementation of SON in 4G networks will bring many advantages. Successive SON procedures are waiting for their time and money to be implemented in 4G, though some essential issues for example of inter Radio Access Technology \(RAT\) interfaces must be overworked."]
