5G PPP project METIS-II @EuCNC 2016

26 June 2016 - 29 June 2016

5G PPP METIS-II project actively contributes to EuCNC 2016.

METIS-II organises the special session 6 on “METIS-II views on 5G RAN design and architecture” on 29 June at 16:30.  The session is chaired by Olav Queseth (Ericsson, Sweden).
Abstract: The main content of the session will be presentations of research papers highlighting some of the most recent results of the work in METIS-II. In addition there will be a short (~10 minutes) introduction to the papers explaining how they fit into and support the project objectives, which is to develop the 5G RAN design. The authors are selected participants of the METIS II project, each dealing with clearly defined topics in order to get a clear picture and offer a clear understanding of the main drivers in the activity performed after one year of work.

METIS-II participates in workshop 1 on “International workshop on 5G architecture” on 27 June at 9:00. The workshop is chaired by Simone Redana (Nokia, Germany) and Alexandros Kaloxylos (Huawei, Germany).
Abstract: The current exponentially growing demand on wireless data rates, the new requirements imposed by future services and the required level of flexibility and heterogeneity call for an investigation of novel aspects of the 5G network architecture (incl. RAN, Core Network, converged wireline and wireless network with both core and access network aspects, networked cloud, Transport Network and Services). In this context, it is not surprising that there are several research initiatives dealing with integration and unification of functional and non-functional requirements, deployable elements, wired and wireless interworking, control, management and operational architecture aspects or that are looking at fundamental pieces that have an impact on the overall 5G architecture or vice versa. Furthermore, in the standardization bodies like 3GPPP, ETSI, ITU-R, IETF and ONF the work on the definition of the architecture for the 5G era has been already started. As part of the 5GPPP Initiative large number of projects attempt to either completely redesign the 5G network architecture or some of its components. Those projects have joint the forces and launched a Working Group on 5G Architecture to serve as a common platform to facilitate the discussion between projects developing architectural concepts and components and foster the discussions on the basis of the KPI’s described in the 5GPPP contract. The WG is proposing this workshop to involve also external research activities into the consensus building on the 5G Architecture.

METIS-II is also participating in panel 2 on 5G Architecture on 29 June at 14:30. The panel is composed of:
Chair: Simone Redana (Head of Mobile Network Architecture & Systems Research, Nokia Bell Labs, Germany)
Alexandros Kaloxylos (Head of Radio Access Network Department, Huawei, Germany
Icaro Leonardo Da Silva (Senior Researcher, Ericsson, Sweden
Konstantinos Chalkiotis (Vice President, Mobile Access Group Technology, Deutsche Telekom, Germany
Akihiro Nakao (University of Tokyo, Japan)

The WG has issued a White Paper end of May/beginning of June on 5G Architecture and would like to discuss it with panellists who has contributed to it and with panellists who can bring a different perspective.

-Papers from METIS-II experts will be released:
C. Herranz, D. Martin-Sacristan, S. Inca, J. F. Monserrat, N.Cardona, “On the Use of Serious Game Engineering for 5G System Performance Evaluation”
Emmanouil Pateromichelakis, Haris Celik, Roberto Fantini, Ömer Bulakci, Luis M. Campoy, Ahmed M. Ibrahim, Javier Lorca, Mehrdad Shariat, Milos Tesanovic, Yang Yang “Agile Interference Management Framework for 5G”.
