Capacity Advisor – Network optimization using performance forecasts.



Resumo

Radio network performance optimization is an area of great importance to telecommunication service providers. The intent is to both ensure that existing equipment is configured and operating at maximum capacity, as well as respond and adapt to changing traffic patterns, as well as plan the introduction of new equipment or technologies.

To support this process, Nokia introduced a functionality in its network performance tool (Nokia Performance Manager), called Capacity Advisor, that relies on time-series forecasting algorithms to provide a forecast of the network’s resource usage in the future; it then combines this information with a set of expert-built rules to provide recommendations for resolving or preventing performance problems.
