Objectif The FUTURE project aims at exploring recent advances in the Internet arena in view of their applicability in 3G UMTS systems. Special emphasis is given to S-UMTS with core network consolidation towards a general purpose multi service UMTS connectivity network, legacy GSM/UMTS voice service migration, and the introduction of a wide range of optimised multimedia communication and information services, based on SIP and Web/WAP techniques. The integration of telephony services with information services is regarded as base for end-user service multiplication and will be combined with inherent capabilities of S-UMTS satellites like wide area coverage, broadcasting, and location determination.Objectives:1) Design of a SIP based UMTS multimedia subsystem to be integrated into the cellular network operator's/service provider's network infrastructure to offer real-time multimedia services.2) A multimedia SIP Client and enhanced SIP Proxy will be designed, developed and partly implemented as prototypes using a commercial platform.3) Exploring innovative applications offering innumerable combinations of SIP based real-time multimedia communication services and Web/WAP based non-real-time information services.4) Demonstrating the achievement of end-to-end QoS for the services voice over IP, web browsing and ftp server.5) Demonstrating the "QoS guaranteeing functions" allowing to meet the QoS subcontract in the UMTS Access Network.6) Evaluating the efficiency of physical and MAC layer access mechanisms.7) Trials multicasting in satellite UMTS section.Work description:The work to be undertaken in the FUTURE project is divided into the following nine Workpackages:WP 100 Requirements for new functionality and reference modelWP200 Emulator adaptationWP 300 QoS in the Core Network and in the Access NetworkWP400 IP based Multimedia SubsystemWP500 Integration and testWP600 TrialsWP700 Dissemination, Standardisation, ExploitationWP800 Assessment and evaluationWP900 Management and coordinationMilestones:The expected result of FUTURE is that key functions of the envisaged full service IP based target UMTS will be identified, designed and demonstrated, using the VIRTUOUS Demonstrator upgraded with the relevant functionalities.
