Why us?
Built on top of more than 20 years of experience, our research activities have forged into a targeted process to deliver relevant research results in a timely and resource aware manner. Through the accompanying toolkits, we provide the means for easy implementation, evaluation and demonstration of novel features using comprehensive, realistic, and intuitive testbeds.
We offer a core network implementation that combines key aspects of the foreseen 6G core networks with modern IT best practices. This creates a system that combines quick integration of 6G oriented features while leveraging the benefits of software-only implementations.
As part of an applied research organization, our team stands for providing systematic technology advancements to meet the specific needs of the R&D market. We adapt flexibly to global R&D requirements, gathered from our industry partners, including network operators, equipment providers, use case owners, integrators and standardization organizations.
To be relevant for the market and to provide cutting-edge results, our research activities are dimensioned for technology and innovation quality, market appropriateness and future proofness. We provide an appropriate know-how and practical implementation for:
- Initial demonstrations of novel technologies and customization to specific use cases, motivating into an intuitive manner the need for research and for technology adoption
- Developing novel ideas, design, and specifications through critical literature assessment and extensive experience in network environments including RAN and core network, transport networks and backhaul, network management etc.
- Identifying technology gaps and selecting future research paths based on the standardization trends with the highest impact future systems.
- Novel concepts development and applying them to new architecture designs, IPR, standardization items, and implementation paths.
- Prototyping in real environments, enabling an easy implementation, evaluation and demonstrator in almost complete operator testbeds, thereby increasing trust in new technologies and fostering innovation
- Ensuring integration and interoperability through trials and validations with flexible, customizable software implementations with standard-based interfaces
- Developing product prototypes and supporting product marketing activities through small-scale practical end-to-end systems for product demonstrations and pre-sales operations.
