Abstract

The concepts, requirements, and technologies of Europe's third generation mobile communication system-the Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS)-are discussed. The cellular architecture, radio resource, adaptive resource allocation and handover enabling techniques for realizing an effective UMTS access network are described. The modulation schemes, multiple access methods, and duplexing methods used in the third generation mobile system's flexible radio interface are also described. The architecture, mobility support, and protocol development of the UMTS fixed network are outlined. >
