Review of Radio Resource Management For IMT-Advanced System

This paper provides a review of radio resource management technologies that can be used or proposed for ofdma-based imt-advanced system. imt-advanced specifications significantly enhanced the existing imt 2000 standard which are represented by lte-advanced and mobile wimax as the main successful candidates. one of the key components for ofdma is radio resource management (rrm) which is used to manage radio resources for the air interface in a cellular network. the main purpose of rrm is to utilize the available radio resources efficiently. the rrm tools such as power control, handover, packet scheduling, resource allocation and, load and admission control are needed to be controlled to maximize the performance efficiency in the wireless networks. by controlling these rrm tools, we are able to maximize the number of users in the network and let the users experience the best quality of service (qos) and throughput.
