RESEARCH
5G Test Network
University of Oulu is building a campus wide network for research, education, daily life and business acceleration
Vertical Applications
Business Models
Besides mobile broad band, CWC is focusing on few interesting verticals which are vital for the future 5G enabled digitized societies.
It is foreseen that the owner of a particular space must have a role in building and operating future mobile networks, as well as in provisioning services. Read more...
Antennas and Propagation
Future antenna design challenges in the field of 5G and IoT are demanding. 5G is evolving towards complex antenna arrays needed to compensate for the higher propagation losses at higher carrier frequencies. Read more...
Radio Transceivers
State-of-the-art radio frequency transceivers are highly programmable but still physically constraint elements in wireless systems that enable and restrict capabilities of future communications. Read more...
Baseband Algorithms
Most of the power of wireless connectivity is spent on the radio transmitters and often the major computational complexity is used in the receiver. Read more...
Future Radio Access
Our major goal is to investigate and conduct experiments into how the increasing carrier frequency and system bandwidth together with increasing heterogeneity of the required services will impact overall radio access network design. Read more...
RAN Optimization & Management
The emergence of small cells is one of the biggest changes in mobile network architecture and careful studies are needed to understand questions like how small can the small cell be or How can wireless backhauling be solved? Read more...
