Ambient Networks Project and Its Key Techniques
Chunyan Feng · ZTE communications · 2008
With the development of wireless communication,the co-existence of different access technologies, operators and terminal varieties reveals the problems of the traditional radio communication pattern. The convergence of heterogeneous networks becomes an inevitable trend in future network development. Ambient networks project of European Union has a profound research on heterogeneous networks convergence. Ambient Control Space (ACS) is proposed in ambient networks project to support dynamic, distributed, self-managed and self-maintained management for heterogeneous networks. Through Multi Radio Access (MRA) architecture, sufficient use of the advantages in multi-access co-existence can provide all users with the best Internet connection services.
