Important results from the project
Yes, the project achieved its goals. KTH focused on 5G low-power beamforming base stations for two scenarios: 1)aircraft cabins and 2)V2X communication in construction areas. KTH developed algorithms for network design in mmWave in-cabin networks. The project demonstrated joint communication and sensing for safety in construction zones and high-capacity, low-power mmWave networks for in-cabin aircraft communications, ensuring robust connectivity and leveraging SOI technology’s energy efficiency.
Expected long term effects
The project contributes to the development of energy-efficient, high-capacity networks for aircraft cabins and joint communication and sensing for vehicles in construction zones. It advances mm-wave network deployment, interference management, and beamforming strategies, ensuring reliable connectivity. The developed algorithms and resource allocation techniques demonstrate the performance and benefits of SOI technology in these critical applications.
