Abstract :
This paper presents the emerging requirements users are imposing upon the evolving world of heterogeneous 4G mobile/wireless networks through their perception of final services. The mapping proposed in this paper groups together these user requirements in three main and distinguishable categories: service provision, connectivity, and adaptability and reconfigurability, by describing system concepts for each category from user terminal to network and services/applications.
