Abstract

Advances in cellular mobile technology have engendered a new paradigm of computing, called mobile computing. The frequency spectrum allocated to this service is not sufficient with respect to enormous growth of mobile communication users. Tracking down a mobile user in a cellular network which is a collection of geometric areas called cells each serviced by a base station is the other concern to the designer. This service also needs another problem to be solved, that is the access of common information by mobile users. Other than the issues in existing technology, many other issues on developing technology need to be addressed. The survey is done in two phases. In the first phase a survey of three fundamental problems in mobile computing on existing technology is done. The issues discussed arise from three essential requirements: the efficient management and sharing of the spectrum among the users; to locate a mobile user in the cellular mobile environments; and processing of queries on location dependent data. The second phase highlights on research on different issues such as security, routing etc. in third generation wireless network in developing technology.
