ABSTRACT

This chapter describes the standards involved in autonomous driving network (ADN). ADN involves a complex ICT system that includes the business operations layer, service operations layer, resource operations layer, and third-party applications. In recent years, international SDOs have initiated many AN research topics and standards, focusing on defining standards in their own domain and collaborating with each other through the Autonomous Networks Multi-SDO. Similar to the general AN standards system defined by TM Forum ANP, ETSI ISG ZSM focuses on the management domain at the resource operations layer and the E2E cross-domain collaboration management domain and standardizes key enabling technologies for AN. In recent years, 3GPP SA5 has initiated a series of AN standards projects for the entire lifecycle of mobile networks, facilitating industry progress in AN level evaluation, intent simplification, automated O&M, management systems for vertical industries, and other key technologies.
