Abstract

As to cope with various standards of incoming 3G and 4G as well as existing widely used 2G mobile communication networks, software defined radio seems to be one of the best promising solution for both user end and service provider. In this paper, we have examined what are the factors to consider when radio access network selection occurs. Our research shows that by selecting widely used GERAN as initial network, reconfiguration procedure is eased and more suitable in rapidly changing environment.
