Future INternet for Smart ENergY (FINSENY)

Start date: Apr 1, 2011, End date: Apr 30, 2013,

The energy sector has entered a period of major change which will continue for many years to come. The increasing proportion of electricity from renewable sources means that the architecture of the energy grid will have to support the distributed, in addition to the centralised, generation of energy and to adapt to a highly volatile supply e.g. from wind and solar generators. From the consumption ...

Advanced Radio Interface Technologies for 4G Systems (ARTIST4G)

Start date: Jan 1, 2010, End date: Jun 30, 2012,

The first 3GPP Long Term Evolution standard version is complete and ready to be deployed. Although it increases peak data rate and spectral efficiency compared to legacy techniques, cell-edge and average user throughputs are still significantly lower than the peak rates. In the LTE-Advanced Study Item, ways to extend LTE are being explored. However, some of the considered techniques are complex an ...

Self-Optimisation and Self-Configuration in Wireless Networks (SOCRATES)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Feb 28, 2011,

The SOCRATES project investigates the application of self-organisation methods, which includes mechanisms for self-optimisation, self-configuration and self-healing, as a promising opportunity to automate wireless access network planning and optimisation, thus reducing substantially the Operational Expenditure (OPEX) and improving network coverage, resource utilisation and service quality. Fundame ...

Fibre Optic Networks for Distributed and Extendible Heterogeneous Radio Architectures (FUTON)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Sep 30, 2010,

Current two big trends in wireless communications are the development of new broadband component and the integration of heterogeneous wireless networks, to achieve the vision f the so-called 4G network.The FUTON project addresses both issues by proposing the development of a hybrid fiber-radio infrastructure transparently connecting remote antenna units to a central unit where a joint processing c ...

eMobility Coordination Action (eMobility CA)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2010,

Telecommunications is experiencing major change. Sector actors are searching for new strategies as globalisation, mergers, convergence and new and disruptive technologies happen. The eMobility Technology Platform was formed to address this challenge and has almost 650 members. It has a track record of success in facilitating consensus building. The strategic objective of the eMobility CA proj ...

4WARD - Architecture and Design for the Future Internet (4WARD)

Start date: Jan 1, 2008, End date: Jun 30, 2010,

Today's network architectures are stifling innovation, restricting it mostly to the application level while the need for structural change is increasingly evident. The absence of adequate facilities to design, optimize and interoperate new networks currently forces a convergence to an architecture that is suboptimal for many applications and that cannot support innovations within itself, the Inter ...
