Dynamic Multipoint Wireless Transmission

Present wireless systems are predominantly cellular: A terminal communicates with one base station and the area controlled by the base station is called a cell. A main problem is then that many terminals will be located far from base stations or in-between base stations, suffering from weak reception, fading, shadowing and significant interference. The intent of this project is to investigate what can be gained by relaxing the constraint of cellular structure on future wireless wide-area systems, with respect to capacity, user-centric metrics and energy efficiency. The project is a collaboration between Uppsala University, Chalmers University of Technology and Karlstad University. The project is funded by the Swedish Research Council.
