Abstract
In the near future personal mobile communications will be provided either by cellular networks and by satellite systems. In terms of capacity and coverage features, the two types of systems are complementary and integration between them could assure noticeable benefits. The paper addresses an efficient management strategy of the RF resources of an integrated system compound by a cellular component and a satellite component and highlights procedures that permit interchange of traffic load between these two parts of the system.
