¨ Wireless Software and Hardware platforms for Flexible and Unified radio and network controL
¨ Call: H2020-ICT-2014-1 ¨ Topic: ICT-11-2014 (FIRE+) ¨ Type of action: RIA ¨ Budget: 5.171 M€ ¨ Duration: 36 M ¨ Partners

Motivation
• closed radio drivers • limited functionality • minor tweak or adaptation may require huge effort and cost
‘OFF-THE-SHELF’ HW AND SW ARE NOT FLEXIBLE
• lack high-level specifications and programming tools • low performance in terms of time control
SDR PLATFORMS ARE FLEXIBLE, BUT…
• are located in fixed environments often limiting validity of results • real-life prototyping and/or involvement of users is hard • steep learning curve
MANY WIRELESS TEST FACILITIES EXIST, BUT…
WiSHF L 4
Objectives
• by building open, flexible & adaptive software platforms with unified programming interfaces for intelligent radio and network control
• by offering these software platforms in wireless test facilities that follow the de facto standards for testbed interoperability set by the Fed4FIRE project
REDUCE THRESHOLD FOR EXPERIMENTATION in view of stimulating wireless innovation 1
• to offer portable testbeds that can be deployed at any location allowing validation in the real world and involving real users
TO INCREASE THE REALISM OF EXPERIMENTATION 2
WiSHF L 5
Objectives
• validating innovative wireless solutions • using WiSHFUL software platforms and interfaces • using (portable) facilities and hardware supported by WiSHFUL
TO ATTRACT 3RD PARTIES FOR EXPERIMENTATION 3
• new software functionality for the WiSHFUL software platforms • new hardware (e.g. mmWave, full duplex radio, smart antennas…)
• compliant with WiSHUL software platforms, at least supporting the WiSHFUL unified programming interfaces
• new testbeds (e.g. IoT, 5G…) • compliant with Fed4FIRE tools and interfaces for testbed access and
experiment control • offering WiSHFUL software platform / interfaces
TO ATTRACT 3RD PARTIES FOR EXTENSIONS 4
