Abstract

This PoC Project will describe the enhanced intent-driven approach for radio network Energy Saving in the radio network domain by utilizing NDT. The PoC aims to demonstrate:

1) How to express different RAN UE throughput targets for different Frequencies or RATs in the specified area in the same intent, and receive the fulfilment results for different RAN UE throughput targets for different frequencies or RATs.

2) How an NOP uses an intent-driven approach connected with NDT capabilities to enable MnS consumer to provide the best values for intent targets and contexts based on a specific intent during intent investigation or pre-evaluation phases (i.e. before the MnS consumer expresses the intent to be fulfilled) to find out the MnS producer's capabilities.

(Note: NOP - Network Operator; NEP - Network Equipment Provider) The implementation of the solution of this PoC complies with the 3GPP and ZSM specifications. The design architecture of the use case follows ZSM 002 (ZSM framework), and uses the intent-driven management service (including intent management operations and intent information model) defined in 3GPP TS 28.312 and 3GPP TR 28.914.
