Smart Network PlanningAutomating Network Design for Value-Driven Het-Net Capacity Planning
Maximizing the Investment Efficiency with Integrated Infrastructure PlanningP.I. Works Smart Network Planning productuses machine learning algorithms to predict networktraffic figures and correlates them with internal/external datasources and SON actions.
2 P.I. Works Smart Network Planning Brochure
The Smart Network Planning product is instrumental in drivingyour network expansion strategy. While the capacity planningmodule delivers the most comprehensive capacity expansionplanning actions, the network design module helps you calculatethe optimum number of required base stations to meet the design SLAs and find the best site locations for rollout or site removal activities.
The network performance will improve through targeted coverage and capacity planning, helping operators improve the NPS (network promoter score) and achieve their benchmark targets at a lower cost.
Key Capabilities• Centralized online platform with dynamic infrastructure management reduces the need for continuous design and planning, thereby requiring significantly less effort as compared to traditional methods. • Utilization of SON actions, machine-learning based prediction, capacity planning actions and correlation of rich data input feeds eliminate redundant investments.• The product provides all the data for making the optimum investment decision, resulting in lower long-term network operation costs and reducing the number of customer complaints.• Below data sources provide a strong framework for Smart Network Planning analysis:
• Radio Propagation Data: Best server and signal strength estimations from external RF propagation tools (Atoll, Asset) as grid exports.• Network Logs: Performance KPIs, capacity utilization metrics, fiber backhaul availability, site physical topology information.• Customer Experience Metrics: Outputs from probe based CEM systems and external Crowdsourced Data systems (Ookla, Rootmetrics, Tutela).• CRM Data: Customer complaints, Points-of-Interest, VIP zones, showcase locations.• Financial Data Sources: Site revenue, site installation cost, site operation costs.
Smart Network Design is an online decisionsupport module designed to automate mobile networkdesign activities based on internal and external datainputs based on the user defined design policies.Selected use cases of Smart Network Designis listed below:
• Macro-site location selection• Small-cell location selection• Site removal
Smart Capacity Planning module automatesall network capacity expansion planning activities.It maximizes Return-on-Investment figures whileoffering service and customer centric infrastructureexpansion actions. Smart Network Planning'scapabilities include:
• Hardware expansion • License planning • Carrier addition• New technology rollout
High Precision, Predictive Network Planning
Product Features
Smart Network Planning supports the drive towards comprehensive network densification, regarded as a crucial step in the 5G evolution strategy.

• Optimal New Site Rollout Locations: Smart Network Planning proposes the
best candidate locations for new site rollouts by accurately identifying traffic
hotspot zones.
• Small-Cell Rollout Locations: Best candidate locations for new small cell
rollouts are automatically identified allowing macro traffic off-load for better
broadband experience.
• Site Rehoming Planning: Under-utilized cell site candidates are proposed to
be re-homed for increased utilization, CapEx savings and enhanced subscriber
experience.
• Map Based Result Visualization: Users have multi-dimensional view of
the results for new network plans.
• Per Element Traffic Modeling: Smart Network Planning can be scheduled to
run regularly and propose new plans in a fully automated fashion.
• Integration with Centralized SON and External Data: Centralized SON
action logs are used to shape capacity expansion and new site decisions.
It is easy to correlate with many external data sources.
• Capacity Expansion Proposals: Smart Network Planning is aware of capacity
expansion needed to resolve high traffic demand bottlenecks by considering
proposed cell site configurations and operator layer management strategy.
