Autonomous system for network monitoring and service correction, in IMS architecture

The IMS networks offer several advantages to telecom operators in terms of connectivity and deployment of new services. However, the multitude of supported access technologies poses significant challenges for QoS management. To this effect, The INQA approach (IMS Network QoS Architecture) provides innovative solutions for services supervision and monitoring, in real time. This allows identification of any QoS degradation, based in resource status. In this work we propose the integration of correction mechanisms and QoS restoration, based on eTOM processes and reports monitoring outcome of supervision operation. The work aims to set up an autonomous system for QoS correction, in IMS context.
