Advanced Mobile Communication Networks, Master Program


Motivation

Why is it important?– The Internet and mobile communication networks are experiencing an

enormous growth and are a crucial factor of today’s economy

Future networks– Heterogeneous fixed and mobile networks interconnected by a

common IP core– Quick introduction of new network elements, applications and

services– Higher bandwidth, reduced delay and lower cost

Challenges:– Heterogeneity, dynamics, complexity, scalability of systems– Self-organization, mobility management, QoS, security

3Advanced Mobile Communication Networks, Master Program


Objectives

• Provide an in-depth understanding of research issues in mobilecommunication networks

• Understand protocol and networking issues of future mobilecommunication networks, esp. ad hoc networks and cognitiveradio systems

• Get prepared for research in mobile networking

Telecommunication World– 2G Mobile Communication Systems are in place (GSM, GPRS,

EDGE)– 3G Mobile Systems (UMTS incl. HSDPA) are available– B3G systems (LTE/SAE) are under deployment– Wireless voice market is saturating– Data traffic is growing– Traditional Telecom Operator and infrastructure provider target the

Internet marketInternet World

– Fixed Internet access is getting common (DSL)– WLAN hot spots are installed at airports, campus areas, coffee shops,

etc.– 802.11a products are standard, 802.11n is establishing– 802.16 (WiMAX) products are available– 802.20 (MBWA) standards approved but not continued– Internet Service Providers (ISP) and Internet infrastructure provider

target the mobile market
