Wireless Personal Communications: An International Journal
| Hi-index | 0.00 |
In this paper we provide an overview of how convergence will play an important role in future generation networks. We discuss how the technology today will eventually converge towards an all-IP based platform, while the commonly used layered software structure, will eventually merge into a layer less structure within wireless communication. Furthermore we discuss some of the important aspects in personalisation of future network paradigms with focus on how networks and network services will be able to sense the user's environment and adapt to this. Finally we discuss one of the most important aspect, namely security and privacy issues within future generation networks.
