Objectif
The MULTINET communication system will be capable of providing the network and application functionalities so that multiple simultaneous networks can be seamlessly handled to optimise communications in multiple dimensions; while sustaining the existing mobile industry and attracting new business revenue. The capabilities provided facilitate mobile broadband multimedia communication services of high quality and functionality with an optimum cost, tailored to the communication offer provided.
The project aims at providing the necessary networks and application functionality enhancements for seamless data communication mobility in an scenario where the user can benefit without intervention from simultaneous transparent network connectivity among the available access networks to benefit from ubiquitous access to broadband applications. The goal consists in the development and validation of an evolved communication system that provides mobility to users in the context of mobile and wireless networks (IP based networks), without modifying neither the existing network, nor the user applications, and in a transparent way.
To achieve this strategic objective, a harmonized technological RTD approach is implemented by providing:
- Tools and protocol for seamless broadband multimedia session delivery across heterogeneous networks.
- Middleware techniques for application layer service to adapt to underlying bearer characteristics.
- Mechanism for bearer services to adapt to the changing nature of multimedia applications.
Two scenarios identified are capable of capturing broadband communication needs at work while on the move. They have also been selected in order to increase the impact of the technology once demonstrated: High-Tech Machinery Maintenance and Utility Companies. Large enterprises and SMEs obtain benefits through the new multimedia services that permit managing their activities from anywhere, with reduced battery power consumption and better pricing conditions.
