KPIMON Overview
|
||
|
|
==================
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
KPIMON is an Xapp in the traffic steering O-RAN use case.
|
||
|
|
There are four total Xapps:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Traffic steering, which sends "prediction requests" to QP Driver
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. QP Driver which fetches data from SDL[4] on behalf of traffic steering, both UE Data and Cell Data, merges that data together, then sends off the data to the QP Predictor
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. QP Predictor which predicts and sends that prediction back to Traffic Steering
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
4. KPIMONN which collects UE/Cell metrics from base station and populates SDL in the first place (this)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
So in summary, the KPIMON xapp is a helper function that receives RAN metrics and write to SDL
