Broadband Radio Access for IP Based Networks |
Driven by the increasing demand for mobile and cordless broadband services in hot spot areas like airports, campus, and conference centres, the BRAIN project will provide a true broadband multimedia IP-based radio technology. As a complement to GSM and UMTS, BRAIN will support several high data rate users via one base station, e.g., provide 2 Mbps for 10 users such that the total data rate will be around 20 Mbps per RF channel. In addition, BRAIN will offer the integration of end-to-end services over IP and evolve IP towards mobility. Furthermore, it will enable the interworking of private, corporate, and public networks. It will also support a wide range of services (point-to-point, point-to-multi-point, symmetric, and asymmetric) and allow roaming as well as inter- and -intra-system handover with GSM/GPRS and UMTS networks.
