Abstract:
Beyond 3G wireless systems will be composed of a
variety of Radio Access Technologies (RATs) with different, but
also complementary, performance and technical characteristics.
To exploit such diversity while guaranteeing the interoperability
and efficient management of the different RATs, common radio
resource management (CRRM) techniques need to be defined.
This work proposes and evaluates a CRRM policy that
simultaneously assigns to each user an adequate combination of
RAT and number of radio resources within such RAT to
guarantee its QoS requirements. The proposed CRRM technique
is based on linear objective functions and programming tools.
