Claim 14:
15. At least one non-transitory machine readable storage medium having instructions embodied thereon, the instructions when executed by one or more processors at a service producer of a base station in a radio access network(RAN) perform the following:
decoding, at the service producer of the base station, raw performance measurements received from a plurality of base stations; and
generating, using the service producer of the base station, performance measurements related to at least one of an inter-base station handover or a protocol data unit (PDU) session resource setup for the plurality of base stations based on the raw performance measurements, wherein:
the performance measurements are useable for performance monitoring of the plurality of base stations in the RAN;
the performance measurements include at least one of: a number of requested handover preparations, a number of successful handover preparations; and
the performance measurement corresponding to the number of successful handover preparations is a cumulative counter (CC) which is incremented by 1 on receipt of a handover command message at the base station from an access management function (AMF).
