| Project name: | Mobile
Networks EVolution for Individual
COmmunications Experience |
| Funding
agency: | Project under ICT FP7 CELTIC initiative,
project number: CP07-011. The total funding of the international
consortium is 15.6 M€. German partners of the MEVICO project are
funded from the BMBF (project number: 01BU1010), with a grant
totalling 3.24 M‚Ç |
| Content: | The MEVICO
project focuses on the research of the network aspects of the 3GPP
LTE-mobile broadband network for its evolution in the mid-term in
2011-2014. Traffic studies forecast an explosive traffic growth in
3GPP networks in the next years. The MEVICO project is developing
appealing solutions to deal with the increase of traffic, both from
mobile operator and user perspective, on the basis of Rel. 10. These
innovative network concepts need to meet additional future
requirements of the evolving mobile networks such as users' diversity
of wireless access via different technologies as well as seamless
handovers to support an acceptable QoE for users. Among these
concepts, smart traffic management for the next generation of mobile
networks is considered to be vitally importantand thus constitutes the
main focus of the the German partners involved in MEVICO. In the context of MEVICO project TKN is actively involved in developing new traffic management techniques, addressing the research challenges related to multipath usage of TCP, access technology reselection, stateless flow admission and cross-layer interference detection |

Excellence |
| Funding
agency: | EU-funded project under ICT FP7,
contract number: INFSO-ICT-224053 |
| Content: | The CONET project
focuses on building a strong research community in the domain of
Cooperating Objects, a unifying concept that binds together the areas
of embedded systems for robotics and control, pervasive computing and
wireless sensor networks. Cooperating Objects are embedded computing
devices equipped with communication as well as sensing or actuation
capabilities that are able to cooperate and organize themselves
autonomously into networks to achieve a common task. In the context of the project, the TKN group is actively involved in promoting the concept of Cooperating Objects as effective method for addressing the challenges in fundamental research areas, like radio resource management and adaptation, as well as in application oriented tasks, like recognition of emotions using wireless sensor nodes. TKN is also leading the development activities for the CONET Testbed Federation [11], a platform for federating Cooperating Object testbeds that facilitates cross-validation studies by enabling easy migration of experiments across the member testbeds. Our TWIST testbed [12] is the largest federate and the main prototyping platform. |

Efficient Sensor
Networks |
| Funding
agency: | EU |
| Content: | The European
EYES project is researching the potential of so-called sensor
networks. These networks consist of spontaneously organized networks
of very small, simple nodes that perform sensor or actuators duties.
In this context, we are specifically investigating the problem of
distributed algorithms (e.g., consensus or converge-cast) in such
environments, as well as the question of supporting semantic
addressing ("Give me the temperature from any sensor in the
living room") in the transport, network, link- and MAC-layer. Key
constraints in such networks are energy supply and energy efficiency
and the need to do with minimum amounts of computational
resources. |

Leveraging channel predictions for OFDM - project
| Project name: | Leveraging
channel predictions for OFDM |
| Funding
agency: | |
| Content: | Short-term
predictions about the channel quality of an OFDM permit to improve
the efficiency of resource usage. As an example, consider a cellular
system that uses OFDM in the downlink. Usually, the various OFDM
sub-carriers' quality varies both over time and over mutliple users.
If this quality is known in advance, various scheduling techniques
can be used to, e.g., maximize the available throughput for all
users. It is the goal of this project to investigate algorithms to
support such prediction-based sub-carrier scheduling as well as
develop architectures, mechanisms, and protocols to implement this
concept in real systems. |

ORAN - project
| Project
name: | OpenFlow-basierten Switches für Forschung
und Lehre |
| Funding
agency: | A collaboration project between
Technical University Berlin (TUB) and European Center for Information
and Communication Technologies (EICT GmbH) |
| Content: | OpenFlow [1]
enables experiments in developing efficient networking protocols and
architectures by decoupling (at least partially) the intelligence from
the data path of a switch/router and delegating it to an external
control that can be programmed by network researchers. In the OpenFlow
approach experimental protocols are implemented in an external
controller without modifications of the routers data-path processing
algorithms. For this purpose the switch has to, however, be able to
support the OpenFlow Protocol. While this approach has attracted a lot
of attention in the research community, the amount of switches
following high performance industry standard on one hand, but also
being relatively open for flexible configuration and supporting
OpenFlow is rather limited. The goal of the ORAN project is to design
and prototype an OpenFlow-enabled Ethernet switch based on an
AdvancedTCA (ATCA) industrial standard. This standard defines highly
modular components that are being used mostly by telecommunication
operators to assemble networks consisting of processing elements
(computers) and data transport modules (Ethernet switches, mobile
base-stations, optical transmission cards etc.) The modularity and the
fact that there is a large market for ATCA components lead to low
prices for the individual components. The advantages of using ATCA for
an experimental network are manifold: composability of components for
special purposes (e.g., wireless or optical transmission), a
well-introduced industry standard (availability of components is
guaranteed over years) and low cost. The project shall develop a
prototypical composition of ATCA components that implement OpenFlow
and establish an example for other universities and research
institutions to go out and build their own that jointly creates a
larger test facility. Project Duration: 05.2010-07.2011 |

agency: | EU KIC ICT |
| Content: | RICH -
Enabling reliable IPv6 communication for critical and time constraint
embedded networks over channel hopping networks. While direct
end-to-end connectivity on IP and higher layers is available towards
single embedded nodes, the network link management and optimization of
teh underlying hopping scheme is outsourced to a more powerful
scheduler in the cloud. Distributed monitoring and controlling is made
available over RESTful like interfaces. This project is particular
intersting in the context of Internet of Things and will also allow
further research for reliable embedded networks with focus on joint
optimizaiton of frequency and spatial diversity approaches for
industrial settings. |

Proxy-based congestion and flow control - project
| Project
name: | Proxy-based congestion and flow
control |
| Funding
agency: | |
| Content: | In mixed wired
/ wireless networks, the efficient support of large-scale traffic
streams is of pivotal importance. An important aspect is congestion
and flow control, where the traditional end-to-end paradigm is
increasingly questioned. More and more, proxy- or middlebox-based
approaches are gaining popularity. In this project, we investigate
the use of congestion control proxies that work by exploiting joint
congestion control information of multiple traffic
streams. |

SeQoMo - project
| Project
name: | Security,
QoS and
Mobility |
| Funding
agency: | |
| Content: | SeQoMo
(Security, QoS and Mobility) is funded by Siemens AG. The focus of
this project is to investigate the suitability of IP-based networks
for support of mobility under the perspective of advanced mobility
mechanisms, security, and Quality of Service (QoS). The investigation of mobility mechanisms has resulted in the development of the MOMBASA architecture and software environment that enables the use of multicast for mobility support. The QoS support rests upon the concept of a binding update which is conditionalized upon the availability of sufficient resources in a new path during a handover. The security part has focused on authentication, authorization and denial of service protection in mobile, IP-based networks. Integrating these three components into an overall secure, QoS-capable mobility architecture based upon IP protocols is the ultimate goal of this project. |

Steuerung
| Project
name: | Steuerung |
| Funding
agency: | Telekom |
| Content: | Future industrial
IT infrastructures and control systems will be heavily based on
Wireless Sensor Networks (WSN) and distributed M2M communication
infrastructures. IT based attacks specifically targeted to
(industrial) control and sensor networks can have huge impacts.
However sophisticated and highly specialized attacks are difficult to
be detected in an automated way with conventional techniques. Most
wireless communications use the RF spectrum. A wireless signal can be
easily intercepted with receivers tuned to the proper frequency. Thus,
messages transmitted can be overheard, and fake messages can be
injected into the message to be corrupted or lost. The objective of
the Steuerung project is to analyse the impact of known jamming
methods on technologies widely-used in wireless sensor networks, i.e.
Buetooth, Wireless HART, ZigBee. Moreove, new concepts will be
developed to protect against new and unknown jamming
attacks. |
