How Well Do Small Cells Fit Into Heterogeneous Management Solutions

This talk will explore the extent to which operators can gain a good planning and operational insight into their small cell networks (both licenced and unlicensed). The talk will focus on management solutions where the small cell network contributes to single view of a larger heterogeneous network, with a strong focus on per subscriber experience rather than just equipment and network health. Will include a perspective on the information that can or cannot be recovered from operational networks contrasting standards, vendor implementations, and future mature solutions.
