WhatsNEW?

Fixed set of codes shared between users

Adaptive Modulation
A new measure of Radio quality - CQI :
Channel Quality Indicator, Fast
Adaptation/Scheduling based on CQI.
New MAC-hs for faster scheduling in Node B !
2 ms TTI (Transmission Time Interval) for
lesser delay.
Best effort service.
