Abstract :
Globally, mobile communications are moving toward broadband communication systems to meet the challenges of significantly increasing data traffic such as that for mobile Internet applications. In order to meet this increasing traffic, the International Telecommunication Union - Radiocommunication Standardization Sector (ITU-R) initiated in 2000 the process toward the next generation of International Mobile Telecommunications systems, referred to as IMT-Advanced systems.
