Abstract Within the evolution of mobile communication systems from second over third to fourth generation, existing air-interfaces will be improved and new ones will be added. Based on the experiences from today's mobile networks, it appears appropriate to extract and re-use the approved features for future systems. This approach is valid especially for protocol software. This paper introduces a design technique called DGAPS (Design of Generic and Adaptive Protocol Software) for enhancing existing and developing future 3G, 4G protocol stacks. The proposed way is to identify communities of signalling, user data transfer and management protocols of e.g. ISDN BRI-, GSM-, DECT-, 3G-, Bluetooth- and HiperLan/2-protocols. The goal is to develop a generic protocol stack to be completed to become a dedicated air-interface protocol stack by downloading the standard specific parts as supplements. This approach offers the potential to design highly adaptive and re-usable protocol software to be incorporated in Software Defined Radios
