Record the SON log: All the key event of SON
feature will be recorded in the eNodeB or M2000.
LOG records SON feature’s running status, key
event, etc.

SON is fully manageable Setting: policy control and
parameter configuration. Evaluation: evaluate the quality
and the impact on networkeffectiveness of SON feature,
result can be displayed as graph. SON Log: recode the key event
