Abstract :
The International Mobile Telecommunications-Advanced (IMT-Advanced) is a concept from the ITU for mobile communication systems with capabilities which go further than that of third generation systems - IMT- 2000. Currently IMT-Advanced is a name of a process rather than detailed technical specifications, to lead and coordinate the international standards towards the 4th generation mobile communication systems. The tutorial describes the vision and requirements set by the ITU for IMT- Advanced and explains the process and its schedule. Finally the technical specifications, although still in a draft stage, of main radio interface technology candidates will be described.
