Abstract: A method of managing a network apparatus of a telecommunication network, where the network apparatus does not expose management interfaces sufficient to allow managing at least one operational parameter thereof of interest for the managing, includes collecting data about the network apparatus to be managed by making requests to the network apparatus to be managed and to at least one other network apparatus in operating relationships with the network apparatus to be managed. Based on the collected data, generating a behavioral model of the network apparatus to be managed. The behavioral model is an inferred logical and mathematical model of the behavior of the network apparatus to be managed with respect to the operational parameter thereof of interest for the managing. The method also includes and managing the network apparatus to be managed exploiting the generated behavioral model thereof.

Abstract: A communication system includes a communication network and a communication system node. The communication system node communicates with the communication network via a first communication link, and establishes a second communication link with at least one user equipment to allow the user equipment to connect to the communication network. The second communication link is an unmanaged communication link. A backhauling provider module associated with the communication network dynamically allocates backhauling resources to the first communication link for data transmission between the node and the communication network based on the user equipment's parameters.

Abstract: A method (200; 600) of balancing a traffic load among at least apart of traffic managing entities (105;110) of a mobile telecommunication network (100) comprising a plurality of traffic managing entities (105;110) is proposed. The method comprises the following steps: collecting (205; 605) traffic-related data referred to said at least a part of traffic managing entities (105;110); identifying (220; 620) a first set of traffic managing entities (105;110) managing an excessive traffic load on the basis of such traffic-related data; identifying (220; 620) a second set of traffic managing entities (105;110) adapted to take charge of at least part of the excessive traffic load to which traffic managing entities (105;110) of first set of traffic managing entities (105;110) are subjected. Moreover, for each traffic managing entity (105;110) of the first set of traffic managing entities (105;110) the method comprises: determining (235-240; 630) at least one traffic managing entity (105;110) of the second set of traffic managing entities (105;110) adapted to take charge of at least part of the excessive traffic load managed by said traffic managing entity (105;110) of the first set of traffic managing entities (105;110); assigning (245; 635) at least part of the excessive traffic load to which said traffic managing entity (105;110) of first set of traffic managing entities (105; 10) is subjected to the determined at least one least one traffic managing entity (105;110) of the second set of traffic managing entities (105;110), and adjusting (245; 635) radio communication parameters of said traffic managing entity (105;110) of the first set of traffic managing entities (105; 10) and of said determined at least one traffic managing entity (105;110) of the second set of 20 traffic managing entities (105;110) thereby redistributing traffic load on the basis of such assigning.

Abstract: A radio access network node of a telecommunication network and method, the node including: a system of radiating antennas radiating radio signals through a geographic territory, and a processor configured to execute computer-readable instructions to: obtain or generate a topographic map of the geographic territory; based on the topographic map, calculate a coverage map of radio coverage of the geographic territory by the radiated radio signals; based on the coverage map, shrink the topographic map to obtain a reduced-size topographic map; based on the calculated coverage map, create a first data structure including plural first data structure records, one for each point of the calculated coverage map, each first data structure records providing a description of a service delivery capability of the node in that point, and exploit the first data structure to decide how to serve user equipment located in the territory corresponding to the reduced-size topographic map.
