Abstract

As the emerging of 4G network. which is the convergence of fixed and mobile networks, there is a great need for the changing of traditional terminal devices to adaptively and intelligently meet the requirements of users. This paper proposes a novel framework and mechanism for self configuration of receivers that operate in heterogeneous environments and in 4G networks. The presented management framework supports dynamically modeling, strategy based optimization for construction of a self configured, self managed and adaptive 4G terminals. For this highly heterogeneous communications and services environment, we propose a framework of Terminal Management System based on self configuration of the terminals by interoperating with existing service delivery, aims to provide seamless service and ABC (Always Best Connected) connections to mobile users. Access network selection and QoS of service are the important factors which have crucial impacts on self-configuration and re-configuration process of 4G terminals. Two separate problems are identified in this paper to satisfy the self configuration and re-configuration of receivers: one involving the framework of self configuration, and the other concerning the optimization algorithm of service configuration in light of quality levels and other parameters.
