Method and hierarchical radio network operations system for controlling a mobile communications network
First Claim
1. A method for controlling a mobile communications network by a hierarchical radio network operations system with at least one radio network operations system on a subordinate level and a radio network operations system on a superior level comprising the steps of initiating a controlling action on the part of the radio network operations system on the superior level, generating a call for data depending on the controlling action, forwarding the call to at least one of the radio network operations systems on the subordinate level affected by the controlling action, providing data on the part of the radio network operations system on the subordinate level affected by the controlling action in response to the call, and forwarding the data to the radio network operations system on the superior level.

Abstract
The invention relates to a hierarchical radio network operations system (OS) and a method for controlling a mobile communications network by a hierarchical radio network OS, the hierarchical radio network OS comprising at least one radio network OS on a subordinate level and a radio network OS on a superior level, wherein after a controlling action is initiated a demand for data depending on the controlling action is forwarded from the superior level OS to at least one subordinate level OS. The latter in response to the call forwards the demanded data to the radio network OS on the superior level.
