"Capacity Provisioning and Resource Management in Next Generation
Wireless cellular Systems"


By Miss Jihui Zhang


Abstract:

There has been a rapid growth in the development and popularity in the
wireless cellular communications. The next generation of wireless
cellular networks is expected to carry multimedia traffic. To guarantee
the different quality of service(QoS) requirements for diverse traffic
types, while maintaining fair and high utilization of wireless
resources, efficient resource management, specifically the resource
allocation and call admission strategies in this paper, is essential for
the system design. This paper investigates the unique characteristics of
multiple access techniques (say FDMA/TDMA and CDMA), multimedia
(integrated voice and data) applications and their respective impact on
the system design, and then studies different resource allocation
schemes that are adaptive to the chosen multiple access techniques and
traffic conditions.
