Wireless communication networks are expected to support multimedia
services for mobile users anywhere, at any time, and in any situations. New
radio access technologies and standards are emerging in order to meet the
increasing demands of mobile user’s applications. Meanwhile,
heterogeneous networks are interconnected and integrated for higher
efficiency in utilizing the radio resources and better quality for serving
mobile users. The objective of this symposium is to serve as an
international forum for experts from academia and industry to exchange
ideas and results about research, developments, standardization, and
applications of current and future wireless communication networks. 
Prospective authors are invited to submit original contributions on all
aspects in wireless networks, including, but not limited to the following
topics of interest. Please note that this Symposium covers higher layers of
the network protocol stack and therefore papers related to radio
communications and physical layer should be submitted to other symposia of
the IEEE Globecom2007 dedicated to the physical layer issues.
