BWNCP'09
The 1st IEEE International Workshop on Broadband Wireless Network Communications Performance
In conjunction with IEEE IPCCC 2009

December 14-16, 2009, Phoenix, Arizona, USA

Website: http://www.ipccc.org

Broadband wireless sits at the confluence of the most remarkable growth stories of the telecommunications industry in recent years. Both wireless and broadband have on their own enjoyed rapid mass-market adoption. Broadband wireless is about bringing the broadband experience to a wireless context, which offers users certain unique benefits and convenience.

Emerging technologies of broadband wireless and cellular like Mobile WiMAX based on IEEE 802.16e standard, long-term evolution (LTE) networks, HSDP, WiRAN, etc are expected to not only compete with the broadband wireless market share in urban areas with DSL, cable, and optical fibers, but also threaten the hotspot based WiFi and even the voice-oriented cellular wireless market. The success of these services depends on the way network operators, wireless access equipment vendors and service providers will deal with the stringent constraints imposed by the underlying wireless architecture. Seamless and ubiquitous coverage and QoS provisioning are the crucial points to face.

This workshop concerns the emerging and the different broadband wireless and mobile networks. Submissions are welcome from academia, industry, and government organizations. Topics of interest for this workshop include, but not limited to, the following:

• Broadband wireless technologies: LTE, WiMAX, WiRAN, HSDPA, HSUPA
• Resource allocation and interference management
• Quality of service and scheduling methods
• Capacity planning and dimensioning
• Cross-layer design and Physical layer based issue
• Interworking architecture and interoperability
• Relay assisted and cooperative communications
• Location and provisioning and mobility management
• Call admission and flow/congestion control
• Performance optimization
• Channel capacity modeling and analysis
