Abstract :
The migration of telecommunications towards the B3G era is characterized by the convergence of mobile communication systems and IP networks, in order to better adapt to the-continuously increasing-user demands. Reconfigurability constitutes a major facilitator towards such convergence. However, the introduction of such concept can change the way wireless networks are designed, due to the time-variant traffic conditions that render conventional network planning methods insufficient. In this context, the paper discusses on some strategies for the dynamic planning and management of reconfigurable network segments, including some simulations and indicative results
