  1. GSC11_OPEN_25 THE WIRELESS WORLD RESEARCH FORUM - GLOBAL VISIONS OF A WIRELESS WORLD Mikko A. Uusitalo WWRF chair Mikko.a.uusitalo@nokia.com Andy Aftelak andrew.aftelak@motorola.com

  2. Shaping the Global Wireless Future WWRF is a research forum for industry and academia to exchange and harmonise views for systems beyond 3G • Develop common global vision for future wireless to drive research and standardisation • Influencing decision makers’ views of the wireless world • Enabling powerful R&D collaborations • Advancing wireless frontiers to serve our customers GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications

  3. WWRF - Objectives and scope • Major objectives • develop a consistent vision of the future Wireless World • generate, identify, and promote research and trends • identify and assess the potential of new technologies and trends • contribute to the definition of research programs • ease future standardisation by harmonising and disseminating views • Scope • concentrate on the definition of research items • open to all actors GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications

  4. Member Domains manufacturers network operators regulators academic institutions research organizations WWRF Sponsor Members • Alcatel • Broadcom • Ericsson • France Telecom • Huawei • Intel • LGE • Lucent • Motorola • NEC • Nokia • Nortel • Raytheon • Samsung • Siemens • Vodafone WWRF membership More than 150 member organisations GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications

  6. The WWRF Vision 7 trillion wireless devices serving 7 billion people by 2017 • All people will be served with wireless devices • Affordable to purchase and operate • Calm computing: technology invisible to users • Machine to machine communications • Sensors and tags: e.g. in transport and weather systems, infrastructure, to provide ambient intelligence and context sensitivity • All devices are part of the (mobile) internet GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications

  7. WWRF Strategy • Maintain and improve status as the global leading platform for creating and disseminating visions for B3G • Invite new valuable contributions from academia & ITC industry • Get maximum appreciation and visibility for our deliverables • Enhance communication inside and outside of WWRF • Influence the creation and direction of research programs globally • Connect relevant B3G organizations globally • Facilitate consortium building • Harmonize approach to B3G • Concentrate on deliverables – and certify them in Vision Committee • System concept with high-level architecture • White papers • WWRF briefings • Evaluate user and service perspective and link it with technology • Support convergence of digital industries GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications

  8. WWRF Deliverables • Input: Contributions to meetings and working groups • Output deliverables: • White Papers and WWRF Briefings on different topics • Book of Visions, most recent one ‘Technologies for the Wireless Future, Volume 2’ published Apr 2006 by Wiley, earlier ones in 2004 and 2001 • Info to other bodies: ITU-R, 3GPP and 3GPP LTE work • Other books and articles etc. GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications

  9. Conclusions on WWRF • Global platform to initiate global cooperation towards future wireless world • Vision from user perspective requirements for the enabling technologies • Unique way of active cooperation within and between industry and academia • Reduce risk for investment in research • Ease future standardisation by globally harmonising views • Proven history of creating large scale research cooperation and facilitating funding • Open to all actors www.wireless-world-research.org GSC: Standardization Advancing Global Communications
