Wireless communications is established through a common medium which is highly dynamic. The elements of wireless communications systems such as nodes in a network, users, and some properties of the wireless devices themselves (e.g. battery) are dynamic as well. In order for wireless communications systems to better perform, adaptation to these dynamic conditions and elements is essential. How well a wireless system adapts to these dynamic conditions depends on the amount of the knowledge of varying parameters. It is clear that the more the knowledge, the better the adaptation.
