INN3SCO Project: INtegration of Non-3GPP Satellite networks with 5G COre networks. The project, funded by the European Space Agency (ESA), deals with the study and evaluation of convergence mechanisms in the use of satellite networks (not developed specifically for 5G) to access a terrestrial 5G Core Network (CN). INN3SCO is leveraging the mechanisms already…
The NB-IoT4Space project (funded by ESA) focuses in the adaptation of the technical outcomes of the standardization process in progress for 5G to allow the use of the satellite component in the future system. The project aims to develop a demonstrator where the communication between a NB-IoT user and the satellite eNB is functionally…
The oneTcall project deals with the study and construction of a vertical integrated VoIP-satellite solution for commercial air and naval operators. RomARS is in charge of the study, implementation and performance evaluation of the voice codec to be used for the oneTcall application installed in end-users smartphones. For more information,visit the official project webpage. Project…
The proposed study is focused on the adaptation to satellite scenarios of the technologies developed and studied within 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) for the definition of 5G standard allowing the inclusion of a Non-terrestrial network (NTN) component into the 5G ecosystem and their implementation on Hardware and Software platforms. In this perspective, it…
ANChOR (dAta-driven Network Controller and Orchestrator for Real-time network management) project is funded by ESA in the frame of the Advanced Technology (AT) ARTES program. The project is led by Networks srl and RomARS personnel (through NITEL) provides support and how-how in the frame of the satellite communications and architectures, 5G architectures and use-cases…
VIBeS (Implementation of Virtualized Network Functions (VNFs) project is program financed ESA-ARTES Advanced Technology, in which NITEL Consortium – research unit “Tor Vergata” – is the prime contractor. The subcontractors are: the CINI Consortium (skilled in security and in virtualization techniques based on containers), the University of Padova (skilled in manage and orchestration platforms of…
SHINE (Security and content right management in satellite assisted in network caching systems) project is program financed ESA-ARTES. CINI Consortium is the prime contractor and the subcontractors are: NITEL Consortium and RomARS key personnel (skilled in satellite architecture and technologies), ITSLab (provider of satellite solution for the maritime communication) e ISCOM (certifying body of…
The FullViewSat project, funded by ESA, aims at defining, implementing and testing a dedicated Virtual Reality (VR 360°) app for live streaming via a satellite contribution. The app is available for smartphones and tablets, Oculus VR and other platforms. The use case is the broadcasting in VR of sports events of minor leagues (i.e.…
The goal of the project is to supply maritime communication and navigation services, cost-effective, useful for enhancing the maritime security and communication, navigation efficiency and maritime safety by the use of the innovative telecommunication solutions such as VDES. VDES provides robust and global data exchange in maritime VHF band, supporting all services, which require…
Project co-financed by ESA/ASI, for the study and the implementation of live satellite transmissions of sport events using Ka band and IP encoding. For the Pilot project, we broadcasted all Serie C (third division) football matches for the league 2015/2016, equipping more than 50 stadiums with satellite antennas, as shown in figure. A typical…
