TLDR
The requirements for third-generation cellular mobile radio systems such as Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) and Future Public Land Mobile Telecommunications system (FPLMTS), which has been named International Mobile Telecommunications after the year 2000 (IMT-2000) are presented concisely.
Abstract: 
In Europe, the challenge of the design of third-generation cellular mobile radio systems has been taken numerous research and development activities in this field have been started. The authors try to give an overview of the European activities in this field. The article is organized in two parts. In the first part, the requirements for third-generation cellular mobile radio systems such as Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) and Future Public Land Mobile Telecommunications System (FPLMTS), which has been named International Mobile Telecommunications after the year 2000 (IMT-2000) are presented concisely. Also, the importance and challenge of the multiple access design for such third-generation cellular mobile radio systems is explained. In the second part, numerous European research activities with focus on the multiple access design for third-generation cellular mobile radio systems are reviewed.

Orthogonal frequency-division multiplex transmission of H.263 encoded video over highly frequency-selective wireless networks

TL;DR: The video performance of a 155-Mbps wireless asynchronous transfer mode (WATM) proposal and that of a 2-Mbps Universal Mobile Telecommunications System (UMTS) concept is evaluated for a range of low- to high-quality video application scenarios, various propagation conditions, and video bit rates using the H.263 video codec.

Power-induced time division on asynchronous channels

TL;DR: This work addresses the question of whether a TDMA-like state can be induced on asynchronous channels in such a way as to reduce interference and energy consumption, and shows how autonomous power management may be used as a mechanism to induce a form of time division.

Time Division Multiple Access (TDMA)

Peter Jung
TL;DR: It shall be motivated that TDMA, being a means of medium access control (MAC), facilitates both a high spectral capacity and a reasonably low implementation complexity.

Source-controlled channel decoding

TL;DR: A modification of the Viterbi decoding algorithm (VA) for binary trellises which uses a priori or a posteriori information about the source bit probability for better decoding in addition to soft inputs and channel state information is proposed.
