BASE STATIONS INFORMATION EXCHANGE IN RADIO ACCESS NETWORK
A method may include receiving, by a first base station from a second base station configuration parameters, for an event. The parameters may include a time interval and a range of values. The method may also include a configuration of requested information for the event. The method may further include determining, by the first base station, that the event occurred based on measured values staying outside the range of values for the time interval. The method may additionally include sending, by the first base station to the second base station, the requested information based on the determining that the event occurred.
