Project Objective:
Define use cases and network requirements for 5G drone applications
Demonstrate the feasibility of URRLC for drone applications in 5G systems
Demonstrate storage/processing offloading in MEC-enabled 5G systems
Demonstrate beyond LoS Drone control – 5G-assisted Dynamic Geofencing and Guidance
Facilitate existing network operators to implement their strategy in terms of 5G RAN planning and deployment.
My Role
