News about the several projects in which GROW is involved.
AROMA – http://www.aroma-ist.upc.edu
GROW hosted a meeting on Jan. 16th-17th. António Serrador and Martijn Kuipers presented the progress of their contributions in AROMA, concerning CRRM concepts and Relative MIMO Gain, respectively.
eMobility – http://www.emobility.eu.org
The activities of the Working Group on Leading–Edge Applications, leaded by Luis M. Correia, are being launched.
COST2100 – http://www.cost2100.org
A SIG (Special Interest Group) on References Scenarios, leaded by Lúcio Ferreira, has been launched. GROW will host a meeting on Feb. 26th-28th.
monIT – http://www.lx.it.pt/monit
The project had several actions during January, namely measurements in various hospitals and public ceremonies on the signature of protocols with municipalities.
NEWCOM – http://newcom.ismb.it
Several contributions to the project were made, namely:
(i) Contribution to Deliverable DR7.4 “Final Report on the activities carried out in Dept. 7”, with results produced by the CRRM Simulator, using the NEWCOM single cell scenario (UMTS R99, UMTS R5 and 802.11 family), from António Serrador and Luis M. Correia.
(ii) Contribution to Deliverable DR2.12 “Final report on channel characterization and modelling”, with results on the relative MIMO gain, from Martijn Kuipers and Luis M. Correia.
(iii) Contribution to Deliverable DI7.1.4 “Final Report on E-MORANS: scenarios, users and results”, where results obtained by the E-MORANS initiative, which deals with the definition of reference scenarios for performance assessment of heterogeneous radio access networks, were discussed by Lúcio Ferreira.
WIP – http://www.ist-wip.org
Lúcio Ferreira attended the meeting in Grenoble, France, on Jan. 18th-19th, where he gave an overview of the activities of IT during 2006, among other contributions.
Information GROW’s website.
Still new data is being added to GROW’s website, which has already become an interesting overview of the work carried out in the Group for Research on Wireless.
