Abstract (EN): The enormous advantages of physical layer adaptivity for adequate operation of wireless systems over widely-varying channel conditions have been widely proved. However, an optimal adaptation strategy for a given set of resource constraints requires a joint optimization across layers. Such a cross-layer optimization is becoming a new paradigm for wireless system design, which can be extraordinarily complex as the number of optimization parameters and layers grows. In this Chapter, we present a comprehensive literature survey of existing cross-layer design approaches for resource management optimization in order to draw some preliminary conclusions on adaptive satellite systems.
