Temporary, local 5G network to help fight forest fires

News from Mon., May 02, 2022

When it comes to activities such as fighting forest fires, monitoring construction sites or providing multimedia services at sports and other mass events, a reliable, secure 5G campus network is often needed locally and temporarily to ensure maximum network coverage on the entire site. Thanks to the 5G+ Nomadic Node from the Fraunhofer Institute FOKUS, this kind of non-public, temporary network can be set up at short notice in order, for instance, to connect emergency forces with each other or control firefighting robots remotely. The entire hardware and software fits into a couple of mobile server rack containers. The operation of the adapted 5G mobile network with a satellite connection will be presented at the Hannover Messe 2022 from May 30 to June 2 at the joint Fraunhofer booth in Hall 5, Booth A06.

Empowering digital sovereignty: New flagship project CampusOS creates ecosystem for open 5G campus networks

News from Wed., February 09, 2022

At the beginning of the year the flagship project CampusOS was launched. It is funded by the German Federal Ministry of Economics and Climate Protection (BMWK) with 18,1 million euros over the next three years. The Fraunhofer Institutes HHI and FOKUS are coordinating the project. The goal of the project is to build a modular ecosystem for open 5G campus networks based on open radio technologies and interoperable network components. This will create vendor independence and enable more competition and innovation to empower the digital sovereignty of companies in Germany. To this end, 22 partners from industry and research are testing different operating models, developing reference architectures, and evaluating the interoperability and performance of integrated solutions in reference test areas. Beyond that, they are testing selected scenarios as prototypes in an industrial environment.
