Reconfigurability Impacts to Resource Management in Future Wireless Communication Systems

This paper illustrates the essential impacts from the reconfigurability to the resource management and spectrum management aspects in the wireless communication system. Since reconfigurability provides potential interoperability, varies system operational parameters and radio system characteristic, the management functions in the communication system such as radio resource management, spectrum management and even network planning and management are facing an evolutionary opportunity. In order to study those three issues in a systematic manner, we take the multi-loop control circuits as a reference model for the overall comprehensive system. Each resource management mechanism contributes to the overall multi-loop control structure. Some selected typical algorithms allocated in each management category providing significant system capacity gains are as well studied.
