SELF-ORGANIZING NETWORK SYSTEM

A self-organizing system (100) for the automatic optimization of a mobile communication network (105) is provided. The self-organizing system comprises: - a first unit (115) configured to collect external data relating to an external event causing gathering of users of user equipment (108) attached to the mobile communication network (105) in a geographical location wherein said external event is scheduled to occur or is occurring, wherein said external data comprises at least one of: data being generated and collected outside and independently from the mobile communication network (105), and data regarding locations of user equipment attached to the mobile communication network, obtained from or through the mobile communication network; - a second unit (120) configured to process the collected external data to obtain spatial and time identifiers of said external event and to obtain a corresponding mobile communication network (105) data traffic forecast which is likely to be caused by the occurrence of said external event; - a third unit (130) configured to correlate said spatial and time identifiers, and said data traffic forecast, with internal network data retrieved and/or generated and/or processed within the mobile communication network (105) and relating to the mobile communication network in order to generate a corresponding network critical issues report listing potential critical issues that can affect the mobile communication network because of data traffic variations caused by the gathering of users of user equipment (108) attached to the mobile communication network (105) when the external event will occur or is occurring; - a fourth unit (160) configured to generate a network configuration update in response to said network critical issues report; - a fifth unit (180) configured to enforce said network configuration update on the mobile communication network (105). L'invention concerne un système d'auto-organisation (100) pour l'optimisation automatique d'un réseau de communication mobile (105). Le système d'auto-organisation comprend : - une première unité (115) configurée pour collecter des données externes relatives à un événement externe provoquant le regroupement d'utilisateurs de l'équipement utilisateur (108) attaché au réseau de communication mobile (105) dans un emplacement géographique dans lequel ledit événement externe est planifié pour se produire ou se produit, lesdites données externes comprenant au moins l'une des données suiv
