How reliable are different methods for connecting to mobile networks to support train signaling systems? This is what Professor Anna Brunström and Associate Professor Johan Garcia at ¹û¶³´«Ã½ have investigated in collaboration with DRIVE partner Icomera.
As part of the DRIVE project, real life measurements of 5G networks are now taking place in Rome, Italy, where two large mobile operators are up to proof in terms of coverage, connectivity, latency and throughput performance.
In Dec. 2020 - Jan.
In the DRIVE project, a common test environment with industry partner Varnish Software has now been installed. The tests will measure the impact of different network connections on latency and bandwidth during video streaming.
Since mid-December, latency and bandwidth testing has been ongoing in ¹û¶³´«Ã½'s 5G testbed. A server is connected to several network connections at the same time to compare their performance.
On November 16-17, the DRIVE project held a two-day kick-off meeting at ¹û¶³´«Ã½. The aim for the kick-off was to get the DRIVE and its subprojects officially started and to let all partner representatives and researchers meet face-to-face.
- I am very excited to get started!
Computer Science at ¹û¶³´«Ã½ university is welcoming Red Hat as a new partner within the DRIVE project. Red Hat is a global software company that provides Linux based open source software products to enterprises. This includes hybrid cloud infrastructure, middleware, agile integration, cloud-native application development, and management and automation solutions.
The digitalisation of both industry and the wider society has only just begun. Communication technology and cellular networks are key factors for the digital transformation and will shape our lives in the coming decade. The project DRIVE has just been launched at ¹û¶³´«Ã½ and it will last eight years.
Latency is the delay that occur in digital services when they are connected online.
