With third and fourth generation (4G) wirelesstechnology, operators may manage multiple wirelessnetworks, including cellular networks of differentgenerations, frequencies and cell sizes; potentiallymultiple wireless LAN networks operating at differentdata rates, and possibly satellite and other networks.Architectural studies on integrated heterogeneousnetworks propose that a Common Radio ResourceManager allocate sessions to wireless networks, based onservice requirements and loading. This idea has merit:Distributed Operating Systems has shown thatdistributing jobs across computer systems can lead toincreased throughput, performance, modularity,survivability, and accessibility. This study investigateshow the increased modularity and performance offered byload shared networks can translate into lower deploymentcosts in cellular networks, as in distributed systems.
