Components, protocols and applications for next generation mobile broadband networks: With the Future Seamless Communication (FUSECO) Playground Fraunhofer FOKUS provides worldwide first open testbed for development and testing.

Berlin, 10th May – It is Sunday evening. Once again, the soccer match is going into overtime. And once more, departure time for the airport is getting inexorably closer. Follow the game on my smart phone? Hardly possible. The inconsistent coverage from the apartment to the departure lounge often does not allow a high-quality and continuous display. The Fraunhofer Institute for Open Communication Systems (Fraunhofer FOKUS) is now presenting a solution for the design and field-testing of mobile multimedia services and cloud applications based on state-of-the-art and future broadband mobile phone technologies. The open test and development environment “Future Seamless Communication Playground”, abbreviated as FUSECO Playground, enables developers for the first time to research, optimize and test prototypes for next generation mobile broadband applications: end-devices, services and business models. In addition, net components and protocols can be developed, upgraded and practically field-tested.
