Abstract
This paper builds on the assumption that in the future, UMTS, HIPERLAN-2 and DVB-T can be three (co-operating) components of a composite radio infrastructure that offers wideband wireless access to broadband IP-based services. Managing the resources of this powerful, composite-radio infrastructure in an aggregate manner, and multi-operator scenario, is a complex task. This paper presents an approach to the overall UMTS, HIPERLAN-2 and DVB-T network and service management problem, providing the internal operation of a system addressing this problem. Key points addressed are the development of an architecture that can jointly optimise the resources of the technologies in the composite radio environment, and the development of open interfaces with Service Provider mechanisms and the heterogeneous managed infrastructure.
Work partially funded by the CEC, under the 5th Framework Program, within the IST project MONASIDRE (IST-2000-26144: Management of Networks and Services in a Diversified Radio Environment).
