• Users are in control through intuitive interactions with applications, services
and devices
• Services and applications are personalized, ambient-aware, and adaptive (I-
centric) - ubiquitous from the point of view of the user
• Seamless services to users, groups of users, communities and machines
(autonomously communicating devices) irrespective of place and network and
with agreed quality of service
• Users, application developers, service and content providers, network
operators and manufacturers can create efficiently and flexibly new services
and business models based on the component-based open architecture of the
wireless world
• There is awareness of, and access to, appropriate levels of reliability, There is awareness of, and access to, appropriate levels of reliability, security security

Key principles for WWRF vision
WWRF · page 11
Some challenges for the future wireless world 1/2
Starting point in addition to the key principles of vision : Humans• Interest in semantic• Need to control and communicate as a prolongation of their human senses
This leads to the following challenges:
I-, user- and group-centric challenges• Exceed user expectations in terms of simplicity and functionality • Enhance user experience through effortless, intuitive communication and information
browsing and retrieval applications, featuring: Natural interfaces, using all appropriate senses Intelligence, context awareness and adaptiveness High degree of personalization
• Manage conflict between diversity (of needs) and simplicity (of appropriation)• Experienced added value exceeds costDevice-centric challenges• Creation and trial of many innovative devices (communicating objects)• Autonomously communicating devices• Nuts and bolts : weight, size, battery life, displays and audio quality….
WWRF · page 12
Some challenges for the future wireless world 2/2
Service-centric challenges• Seamless services irrespective of place and network and with agreed quality of
service • Support innovative applications (e.g. mobile multimedia, communicating objects) • Efficient and flexible service and business model creation -> component-based
open architecture and platform, generic service elementsSystem-centric challenges• Independent evolution of different layers, e.g. services and networks• E2E security, scalability, reconfigurability and manageability• Requirements from convergence of digital industries• IPv6 and beyondAccess Network –centric challenges• Transparent, seamless and secure access across any access networks (short
or long range, relayed, multiple hops, ad hoc) • Connect a trillion devices, including machine-to-machine and sensor networks • More efficient air interfaces and spectrum use, much higher bit rates, ubiquitous
coverage• All-IP architecture and beyond• Flexibility, cognitive radio, self-managed systems

WG4 Scope
• WG4 focuses on air interfaces, and smart antenna and relay network enhancements, in metropolitan and wide-area environments; i.e. wireless MAN and WAN point-to-multipoint, unicast, multicast and broadcast systems, with or without mobility.
• The beyond-3G systems under consideration are characterized by aggregate bit rates up to the 100 Mb/s range or higher, high mobility, high user capacity and ubiquity, and coexistence with complementary services sharing the same or adjacent spectrum.
• Typically considered distances between mobile terminals and access points are greater than 100 m., although communication may be facilitated by a relay network with shorter inter-relay distances.
• Technology domains within the scope of WG4 include - physical layer (PHY)- medium access layer (MAC)- cross-layer optimization- enabling radio frequency technologies and components- system topologies- coexistence and deployment, and - radio channel propagation models.

Overall System Issues

WWRF · page 18
New Air Interfaces
• Frequency domain-based air interfaces
• Adaptable, scalable; terminal cost commensurate with capability.
• Location-aware Radio Resource Management
• WG4 white papers:
- “New Air Interfaces – Requirements and Solutions” (2003-2004)
- “Broadband Frequency Domain-Based Air Interfaces” (2004-2005)
• Scalable air interface preferably supported by a reconfigurable DSP architecture
• Multiple access:
- Packet based, with packets partitioned and assigned to time division/frequency division/space division “chunks”. Assignment takes user terminal bandwidth, bit rate and signal processing capabilities into account.
- Multiple bandwidth frequency-domain-based transmission for opportunistic cognitive radio.
- Broadcast and multicast must be implemented efficiently.
WWRF · page 19
Relaying• Relaying can
- increase coverage- reduce terminal power and - enhance capacity
but not necessarily all simultaneously.
• Cooperative Relaying- Exploitation of Spatial Diversity- Virtual Antenna Arrays- Single Frequency Networks
• Mobile Relays in Cellular Networks
• Routing issues: possible approach is overlay wireless network concept: Cellular Based Multihop (CBM)
• WG4 white papers:
- “Relay-based Deployment Concepts for Mobile Broadband” (2003-2004)
- „Meshing for relay-based deployment“ (2005)
- „Multi-hop protocols for relay-based deployment“ (2005)

Smart Antennas• MIMO processing techniques
- Spatial Multiplexing- Space-Time coding
• Interference reduction• Diversity Tx/Rx• Adaptive, reconfigurable, robust:
- Adaptive beamforming for high inter-element correlations- Diversity or space-time coding for low inter-element correlations- Spatial multiplexing or multiuser diversity- Cross-layer adaptivity
• Approaches to low cost, simple implementation:- Differing array implementation constraints at base stations and user terminals.- Distributed (virtual) antenna arrays- cooperation among separate user terminals- MEMS, RF combining, efficient space-time-frequency DSP architectures.

Radio System Architecture
• Duplexing: TDD, FDD, hybrid, band-switched duplexing
• Dynamic resource allocation: Scheduling and signalling subcarrier power, time/frequency chunk allocation, and code rate for OFDMA
• Cross-layer optimization – balance against MAC/PHY separation to support a wide range of air interface alternatives.
• Intersystem handoff, flexible resource allocation across different access technologies
• Location- for performance enhancement as well as facilitating new location-based services. Difference from earlier wireless systems: context awareness, positioning technologies
• Shared channels
- Spectrum sharing - Multi-band signalling
- Flexible use of spectrum, non-continuous spectrum use
• WG4 white paper:
- “Duplexing, resource allocation and inter-cell coordination“ (2004-2005)
