Abstract :
In a composite radio environment, different radio technologies can be co-operating components of a combined heterogeneous infrastructure, managed by an advanced service and network management system. This paper presents an architecture that aims to maximize the derived benefits, by managing efficiently the performance of the underlying networks.
