News about the several projects in which GROW is involved.
COST IC1004 – http://www.ic1004.org
Michal Mackowiak, Lúcio Ferreira and Sina Khatibi are preparing contributions for the next meeting.
LEXNET – http://www.lexnet-project.eu
A report on SAR simulations for Duke and Eartha voxel models, different body postures in LTE and 3G is being prepared by Michal Mackowiack. Contributions to report with simulations for body influence on the dosimeter performance have been circulated by Michal Mackowiack. Initial simulations are being performed on network topologies by Daniel Sebastião. Filipe Cardoso has circulated a document with the WP7 Implementation Plan for Year2.
MCN – http://www.mobile-cloud-networking.eu
A paper, entitled “An Architecture to offer Cloud-Based Radio Access Network as a Service”, was written, as one of the results of the first year of research. It was presented in the IC1004 COST meeting and submitted to the EUCNC conference. In parallel, the work on the two associated research topics, on (a) the management of virtual radio resources and (b) radio and cloud resources management, are progressing. In particular, special attention is being paid to the profiling of computation resources dependency on traffic load and radio resources usage.
NEWCOM# – http://www.newcom-project.eu
Initial results for the JRA on Virtual MIMO in Body Area Networks are being analysed together with PUT. Within WP2.3, a cooperative activity with EURECOM is addressing the use of OpenAirInterface for the profiling of computation resources of software-based LTE base-stations, for various traffic loads and radio resources usage.
FAQTOS – http://www.faqtos.pt
FAQtos team was present in two schools, at Porto and Felgueiras, where information actions were done on exposure to EMFs and how mobile communication systems work. More of these actions are scheduled for the coming months. The team is also preparing a series of presentations on “Mobile Phones – Myths and Facts” in collaboration with PT Comunicações, to be held on Lisbon, Porto and Aveiro.
