Descripción del proyecto
Aprovechar la banda D del espectro radioeléctrico para obtener velocidades de datos sin precedentes más allá de las redes 5G
Proporcionar el acceso rápido, seguro y fiable a los datos en cualquier lugar y en cualquier momento que se exigirá el internet de las cosas y más allá de las redes inalámbricas 5G requerirá avances significativos en la infraestructura inalámbrica de medio alcance actual. El equipo del proyecto DREAM, financiado con fondos europeos, pretende conseguirlo combinando nanotecnología avanzada de semiconductores y una sólida red de malla inalámbrica basada en infraestructuras con un rendimiento de fibra sin parangón. En DREAM se desarrollará un conjunto de antenas direccionables de bajo coste para aprovechar el espectro radioeléctrico en banda D con un transceptor bipolar complementario de óxido metálico y semiconductor de bajo consumo. Permitirá enlaces inalámbricos con velocidades de transmisión de datos al menos diez veces superiores a las de las tecnologías actuales.
Objetivo
Nowadays there is a shared vision among industry, operators and academy that beyond 5G wireless networks will have to provide wideband wireless access and ubiquitous computing anywhere and at any time. The human life of the majority of the EU citizen will be surrounded by intelligent wireless sensors, which will bring radical changes to the way we live and do things. Supporting this scenario is a challenge for network operators and wireless network infrastructures and it will demand a tremendous performance improvement of medium range wireless infrastructure. This challenge needs to be addressed by a convergence of advanced semiconductor nanotechnology and a robust wireless infrastructure meshed network with seamless fiber performances.
The DREAM project, through the exploitation of the radio spectrum in D-band (130-174.8 GHz) with beam steering functionality, will enable wireless links with data rate exceeding current V-band and E-band wireless backhaul solutions by at least a factor of 10 and thus, it will bring wireless systems to the speed of optical systems. The DREAM project vision and objectives rely on a power efficient and silicon based BiCMOS transceiver analog front end, operating in D-band and enabling cost efficient deployment of meshed networks with seamless fiber performance. A beam steering integrated antenna array using an intelligent low-cost packaging technology prototype will be developed for the implementation of the beyond 5G network proof of concept in a realistic environment.
The DREAM consortium has a well-balanced and complementary known-how in the relevant areas for designing and demonstrating the feasibility of a small cell cellular network architecture based on meshed D-band backhaul links. DREAM will therefore secure Europe’s industrial leadership and pave the way towards the beyond 5G telecommunications networks.
