In the realm of mobile communication networks, the eva‎luation of efficiency focuses on user-centric aspects. With billions of users globally and significant economic value, mobile communication networks play a fundamental role in the world. The performance of communication networks depends on a set of key indicators and criteria. Among these, metrics like call quality, network reliability, and service continuity hold paramount importance. In this context, data is collected using mechanisms like MDT (Minimization of Drive Tests), enabling the eva‎luation of user behavior and the implementation of strategies for providing higher quality services. These strategies often require addressing user demands, privacy concerns, network security, and balancing costs with quality improvement and user satisfaction. With the increasing complexity of mobile communication networks, eva‎luating network performance has become more challenging. This complexity is further compounded by the integration of advanced equipment, posing additional challenges to network management. To address these issues, networkoriented approaches based on standardized methodologies are applied to address challenges like high costs and operational difficulties. Given the dynamic nature of mobile communication networks, this report provides a comprehensive overview of network optimization strategies, frameworks for performance improvement, and tools for network diagnosis and optimization. The findings presented in this report emphasize future research directions, highlighting critical areas for further investigation, including MDT, security, operational costs, and advanced methodologies.
