Patent attributes
Systems, methods, apparatuses, and computer program products for dynamic target cell selection for application of RAN optimization are provided. One method includes receiving a request, from one or more radio access network optimization services, that comprises a list of attributes corresponding to characteristics of a cell and a cell selection criterion for each of the attributes, receiving, from one or more radio access network cells, a data stream comprising metrics for at least one of the cell or users in the cell. The method may also include generating, based on the received request and the metrics, a list of zero or more cells that meet the selection criterion for one of the radio access network optimization services or for a group of the radio access network optimization services, and sending, to a respective one of said one or more radio access network optimization services, the generated list of said zero or more cells that meets the selection criterion for the respective one or more radio access network optimization services.
