Summary

This project will deal with the nterference problem in WLAN networks in a novel way, i.e. the intelligent radio resource management. Intelligent management involves: on one hand, (i) not only using traditional signal processing techniques or classical medium access protocols, but also the deployment of fuzzy logic techniques. On the other hand, (ii) the development of adaptive/reconfigurable algorithms depending on the scenario, which may adapt the requirements on Quality of Service (QoS) without losing the communication and finally (iii) the joint resource optimization between physical and link layers.
