SPOT5G - Single Point of attachment communications heterogeneous mobile data networks

SPOT5G aims at contributing to the design of an innovative communications architecture which can break the performance limitations of the currently loosely inter-connected, resource-fragmented and isolated operation of the mobile network ecosystem. The objective is to jointly and efficiently handle evolved mobile broad band (eMBB), massive Machine-Type Communications (MTC) for the Internet of Things (IoT) and Ultra Reliable and Low Latency Communications (URLLC). This will be done by transforming the existing multi-layered set of attachment points to a flat coalition of massively distributed radio transceivers utilizing a common pool of energy, radio, computing and storage resources that are optimally handled by a network coordinator in the cloud.
