Network planning for third-generation mobile radio systems

Channel Allocation for Third-generation Mobile Radio Systems

Dynamic channel allocation (DCA) techniques have been discussed in detail in the excellent overview paper of Katzela and Naghshineh[1]. Zander [2] investigated the limitations of radio resource management in future wireless networks, while Peha et al [3] discussed the practical problems that may be encountered in designing a DCA based mobile radio system. In dynamic channel allocation all suffi...

Radio Resource Allocation in Third-Generation Mobile Communication Systems

Code-division multiple access has been widely accepted as the major multiple access scheme in third-generation mobile communication systems. Wide-band CDMA and its hybrid associate time-division CDMA are key elements of the IMT2000 framework of standards. Since the beginning of the 1990s there has been enormous research activity in analysis of the soft (i.e., interference limited) capacity of t...

Urban Radio Network Planning for Mobile Phones

La planification de réseaux radio pour la téléphonie mobile en milieu urbain est une nécessite de gros calculs, qu'il est préférable d'exécuter sur plusieurs processeurs en parallèle. D'une part, il faut simuler la propagation des ondes radio afin de pr dire les zones qui peuvent être couvertes. Le programme ParFlow++ a été développé dans ce but. D'autre part, il faut choisir l'ensemble d'anten...

WDCDMA for UMTS – Radio Access For Third Generation Mobile Communications

Demand-based Radio Network Planning of Cellular Mobile Communication Systems

This paper presents a demand-based engineering method for designing radio networks of cellular mobile communication systems. The proposed procedure is based on a forward-engineering method, the Integrated Approach to cellular network planning and is facilitated by the application of a new discrete population model for the traac description, the Demand Node Concept. The use of the concept enable...
