Efficient radio resource management scheme for multimedia services in broadband mobile networks

This paper defines a radio resource management concept for multimedia services in future broadband mobile radio networks. Based on the Hiperlan/2 system we design an adaptive radio resource scheduler which autonomously adapts to current traffic types and volume. We assume IP traffic models for voice, HTTP and video users and optimize the scheduling functions in the access point (base station) of broadband mobile network in order to maintain QoS for the services. The interworking among admission control, load control and the adaptive scheduler is shown. The principles discussed here are not restricted to H/2 but can be exploited for any radio access technique (RAT) using adaptive schedulers, e.g. dynamic scheduling for reconfigurable terminals.
