Abstract :
A critical concept for the provision of global integrated 3G services is the virtual home environment (VHE), where users can personalize and retain their service environment preferences across network boundaries and between terminals. This paper focuses on the requirements for VHE provisioning in 3G mobile networks. The most important aspects discussed include service scalability, service personalization, and QoS requirements in terms of network access, mobility management and terminal capabilities
