| Summary: | The mobile communication technology growth in Malaysia,
particularly in cellular network has led to higher demand of spectrum access.
However, with limited number of radio spectrum availability, an effective
spectrum management tool is needed. The commercial software will be an
expensive solution for a long run in the rapidly changing environment of mobile
technologies. Hence the development of open-source spectrum management
tool that not only efficient but also cost effective is needed. The tool must be
able to manage existing spectrum and assist in spectrum planning for new base
station (BS). It also must be able to identify possible interference that could
happen between BS. This paper will highlight the development of spectrum
management tool using open-source resources for Malaysian authority. The
simple cost effective tool is able to do proper spectrum management and
planning for 2G, Global System for Mobile Communications (GSM), and 3G,
Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) networks. |
