Abstract

The idea of this paper is to study the resource management allocation techniques in GSM and the 3rd generation mobile networks. The main objective is to improve the spectral efficiency in GSM and 3rd generation (UMTS).  Re-use partitioning is seen to be one of the best solutions to improve the spectral efficiency.  Some of the results about the work that we have been already done in GSM to improve the utilization of spectral efficiency will be introduced in this paper. Also we outline the literature survey for some suggested algorithms in GSM, GSM 2+ (GPRS), UMTS. The transition from GSM to GPRS. Then the limitations and the future work of UMTS will be briefly discussed.
