Moscow, Russia

As wireless cellular systems proliferate rapidly over the last

decade, they introduce fundamental changes to the anytime,

anywhere Mobile Internet access, as well as arise new

challenges for the research community. The emergence of new

generation broadband standards (such as IEEE 802.16m and

LTE-Advanced) requires aggressive improvements in all aspects

of wireless system design, ranging from more advanced antenna

technologies on mobile platforms, to cross-layer energy

efficient and co-operative transmission techniques.

The Workshop aims to bring together the researchers from

academia and the experts from industry to address recent

advances in the design, modeling, prototyping,

implementation, standardization, and deployment of broadband

wireless access networks. It is held in conjunction with the

2nd International Congress on Ultra Modern Telecommunications

and Control Systems (ICUMT), Moscow, Russia on 18-20th October,

2010.

Topics of the 1st RABAN Workshop include, but not limited to,

the following:

* Cross-layer optimization concepts

* Energy efficiency and power management

* Co-operative techniques and traffic relaying

* Multi-access networks and multi-radio terminals

* Network cognition and self-configuration

* Multi-tier network technologies and architectures

* Mobile broadband traffic support

* Vehicular networks

* Client quality of experience enhancement

* Machine-to-machine communications

* Interference mitigation approaches

* Distributed antenna architectures

* Advanced MIMO techniques

* Channel estimation techniques and channel models

* Spectrum management and regulatory issues
