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 of cellular and local area networks in a unique radio system will provide a great advantage to final users and operators, compared with the nowadays situation with many disconnected systems and users equipped with different subscriptions, radio interfaces and terminals. To this issue, the IST project WINNER II has defined three system modes suited to local, metropolitan and wide area respectively. The aim of this paper is twofold: first, it presents an architectural solution for scalable and hybrid radio resource management to efficiently integrate the different WINNER modes; second, it proposes a hybrid handover mechanism to exploit the availability of the different modes in the WINNER system.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
