- Description
- Future wireless networks would be radically different from today's independent radio access technologies (RATs) through the widely accepted notion of convergence in heterogeneity. Multiple access networks are expected to converge in a manner where heterogeneity can be exploited as an enabler to realize the Optimally Connected, Anywhere, Anytime vision of the International Telecommunications Union. This stimulates current trends toward the convergence of complementary heterogeneous access networks in an all-internet protocol (IP) core network and raises the importance of cooperation in such a multiple radio access technology (multi-RAT) environment. In this chapter, we introduce a generalized cooperative and cognitive radio resource management (CCRRM) architecture, anchored on the key principle of technology agnostic approach, to optimize radio resources usage, maximize system capacity, and improve quality of service (QoS) in future wireless networks. Particularly, we advocate a novel measurement-based network selection technique, formulated based on mathematical framework, and terminal-oriented network-assisted (TONA) handover architecture as the main actors of this technology agnostic approach. Furthermore, we demonstrate that the cross-fertilization of the technology agnostic approach and collaborative efforts of multi-domain cooperation in the generalized CCRRM architecture results in a QoS-balanced system which exhibits several intrinsic properties; favorable for the optimization of radio resource usage in future wireless networks.
