Future mobile broadband wireless networks: a radio resource management perspective

Summary Future wireless evolution envisages high rates, low hierarchy in the network architecture, antenna array processing, multiple access modes and multihop operation as part of the system concept. To exploit the increased capabilities of the systems in conception, efficient resource management strategies need to be developed. The goal of this paper is to examine the key aspects of the evolution which impact radio resource management for the mobile broadband wireless network, and to emphasize the areas that need to be addressed for servicing mobile users with varying quality of service requirements.
