Scalable and hybrid radio resource management for future wireless networks

The concept of ubiquitous and scalable system is applied in the IST WINNER II [1] project to deliver optimum performance for different deployment scenarios, from local area to wide area wireless networks. The integration in a unique radio system of a cellular and local area type networks supposes a great advantage for the final user and for the operator, compared with the current situation, with disconnected systems, usually with different subscriptions, radio interfaces and terminals. To be a ubiquitous wireless system, the IST project WINNER IF has defined three system modes. This contribution describes a proposal for scalable and hybrid radio resource management to efficiently integrate the different WINNER system modes.
