Descripción del proyecto
Sistemas avanzados de antenas para mejorar la cobertura inalámbrica
La siguiente generación de redes inalámbricas debería superar los límites de los sistemas actuales de base terrestre y suministrar sin interrupciones los servicios en cualquier lugar y momento, además de cobertura en zonas inalcanzables para cualquier red terrestre convencional. El objetivo del proyecto ANTERRA, financiado por las Acciones Marie Skłodowska-Curie, es solucionar la falta de experiencia en materia de comunicación no terrestre en el sector de las telecomunicaciones. Quince doctorandos recibirán formación sobre sistemas de antenas para redes no terrestres, una tecnología facilitadora esencial para alcanzar una cobertura verdaderamente global. ANTERRA ha creado una red de formación bien estructurada con grandes laboratorios de investigación y desarrollo de los sectores, universidades e institutos tecnológicos europeos del ámbito.
Objetivo
Our society is on the brink of a new age with the development of new visionary concepts such as internet of things, autonomous driving, and coverage everywhere. This stimulates the use of new deployment concepts, such as Non-Terrestrial Networks (NTN), to support the wireless communication evolution. For 6G, a key use case which stands unaddressed by prior telecommunication generations, is that of coverage everywhere. A major candidate to solve this issue, is to deploy a network of satellites in an NTN configuration, which is front hauled by a high-gain gateway cell in order to serve rural and remote areas which up until now is lacking coverage. Here, especially novel energy efficient antenna systems are required to track fast moving satellites while meeting the cost targets of the consumer market. One of the major reasons for not addressing this thus far is the lack of expertise about non-terrestrial communication in the classical (terrestrial) telecommunication industry, which underpins the urgent need for a cross-disciplinary industrial doctorate network.
ANTERRA establishes a unique and well-structured training network with leading R&D labs from European industries, universities and technology institutes in the domain of antenna systems for terrestrial as well as non-terrestrial applications. The 15 ESRs will form a research team that is embedded in leading industrial and academic R&D labs. The programme will strongly enhance the employability and career prospects of the ESRs by offering a high-quality consortium with in-depth training in the technical areas as well as a comprehensive set of transferable skills relevant for innovation and long-term employability. The ESRs will all spend at least 18 months of their time at industry, ensuring that the training includes a significant industrial experience and application.
