SOLUTIONS
The Alliance sponsors projects in several areas:
-
Future Wireless Access
- This project aims to develop the core technologies for future wireless connectivity with the aim of superseding the existing systems. The project will aim to find solutions for capacity and coverage improvement which are needed to resolve key challenge such as he increasing data rates and requirements for improved connectivity.
-
Future Wireless Networking and Core Network
- This programme funds and co-ordinates and number of projects and collaborations within its thematic area. Its aim is to create innovations and new solutions which will lead to increased energy-, spectral – and cost-efficiency in future mobile communication networks. Such activity will involve new architectures of future mobile networks, interference management methods for future wireless networks, future green wireless communications, key technologies for future IPv6-based core network as well as testing and evaluation methodologies for future wireless networks.
-
Future Services (Ubiserve)
- This project is a joint research effort dedicated to advancing research in the field of ubiquitous services. The project aims to construct service enabling environments, to develop test environments in real-life settings and to coordinate the information on other facilities, tests and demonstrations and expertise within the ICT Alliance.
