Abstract

The mobile and wireless ATM DISN is introduced for providing “seamless” integrated strategic-tactical network. The DISN architecture is driven by the goal of delivering a comprehensive range of communication services to mobile users by the mobile wireless enhanced ATM network. Provision of services to the mobile periphery is dependent upon the integration and interworking of heterogeneous mobile networks and fixed network entities, and the support of radio connections through the various layers of the air-interfaces. The proposed wireless DISN platform will advance the state-of-the-art of technology in several areas
