本文综述了近十年来应用于无线蜂窝通信网络的新兴的自组织领域的文献。自组织已被广泛研究并应用于自组织网络、无线传感器网络和自主计算机网络；然而，在无线蜂窝网络的背景下，这是第一次尝试以教程/调查的形式来透视各种努力。我们提供了关于自组织蜂窝网络的现有文献、项目和标准的全面调查。此外，我们的目的也是为了对这一活跃的研究领域有一个明确的理解，确定一个明确的分类和设计自组织机制的指导方针。我们比较了现有解决方案的优缺点，并强调了进一步发展的关键研究领域。本文为任何愿意深入研究无线蜂窝通信网络中的自组织的人提供了指南和起点。
This article surveys the literature over the period of the last decade on the emerging field of self organisation as applied to wireless cellular communication networks. Self organisation has been extensively studied and applied in adhoc networks, wireless sensor networks and autonomic computer networks; however in the context of wireless cellular networks, this is the first attempt to put in perspective the various efforts in form of a tutorial/survey. We provide a comprehensive survey of the existing literature, projects and standards in self organising cellular networks. Additionally, we also aim to present a clear understanding of this active research area, identifying a clear taxonomy and guidelines for design of self organising mechanisms. We compare strength and weakness of existing solutions and highlight the key research areas for further development. This paper serves as a guide and a starting point for anyone willing to delve into research on self organisation in wireless cellular communication networks.
