Functional UMTS Real Emulator
The FUTURE project aims at adopting recent advances in the Internet
arena in UMTS by exploring applicability of native internet protocols
(in accordance with IETF multimedia data and control architecture) in 3G.
Special emphasis is given to core network consolidation towards a general
purpose multi service UMTS connectivity network, legacy GSM/UMTS voice
service migration to the consolidated packet based UMTS core network domain,
and the introduction of a wide range of optimised multimedia communication
and information services, based on SIP and Web/WAP techniques.
The integration of telephony services with information services is regarded as base for
end-user service multiplication and will be combined with inherent capabilities
of S-UMTS satellites like wide area coverage, broadcasting, and location
determination.
The partners in this project are Telespazio, Integrasys,
Siemens Austria, Ericsson Hellas, Space Engineering, Ascom, European Bussiness
Associates, University of L'Aquila, and the University of Aachen.
