This paper presents a novel JRRM strategy based on reinforcement learning mechanisms that control a fuzzy-neural algorithm to ensure certain QoS constraints. Three RATs (radio access technologies), namely UMTS, GERAN and WLAN are considered as common available technologies to select. The fuzzy logic allows for a very simple handling of the joint radio resource manager simply by activating a set of rules. The membership functions considered by these rules are adaptive so that a desired performance in terms of the probability of user satisfaction can be guaranteed by means of the reinforcement learning algorithm. Some illustrative simulation results to evaluate the behaviour of the proposed JRRM technique are presented.
