Magister Solutions took part in the Celtic-Plus EUREKA Cluster SHARING project, which ran from 2012 to 2016. The project was created to stimulate the 4G evolution towards 5G mobile networks by developing innovative technologies designed to improve network performance and user experience. It has issued 29 contributions to the 3GPP standards and over 100 journal and conference publications.
SHARING explored new concepts with a special focus on interference management, cost-power efficient small cell deployments, LTE-A WiFi convergence, network-controlled device-to-device communications, meshed relay-assisted networks, Self-Organized Network (SON) features and architecture evolutions for heterogeneous networks.
The key innovations of Magister were an enhanced architecture design for Generic Minimization of Drive Tests (GMDT) concept, and a software solution designed to improve user localization in heterogeneous 3GPP / WiFi networks. It was demonstrated at the Celtic-Plus Event in Vienna in April 27, 2015 – April 28, 2015.
The project was led by Orange (France) in cooperation with Magister Solutions (Finland), Avea Itetisim Hizmetleri (Turkey), Commissariat à l’Energie Atomique et aux Energies Alternatives (France), Ericsson Finland (Finland), Eurecom (France), European Communication Engineering (Finland), IDATE Consulting and Research (France), Mitsubishi Electric R&D Centre Europe (France), Sequans Communications (France), Siradel (France), Supelec (France), Thales Communications and Security (France), TTI Norte (Spain) and the University of Oulu (Finland).
