Welcome to EUMS
Multimedia wireless services, including audio and video streaming, wireless TV and tele-medicine and distant learning, are becoming increasingly popular as they provide users the convenience of access to information and services anytime, anywhere. Therefore, the continuing success of deploying wireless networks hinges on providing better real-time multimedia services and connectivity in a cost effective manner to mobile users. As the demand for ubiquitous wireless connectivity increases, current networks (cellular, local or mesh) will face scaling issues. Despite substantial standardization efforts and the many existing proposals, these cannot handle large-scale multimedia exchanges as they lack means for quality of service (QoS) delivery in terms of resource management and end-to-end guarantees. There is a need to promptly provide the Canadian telecommunications sector, both vendors and service providers, with leading edge wireless access and connectivity solutions over international competitors. In strong collaboration with Avaya (previously, Nortel) and Lunaris, the research in this product aims at achieving ubiquitous wireless broadband access for the Canadian public, government and business, and will enhance Canada’s position in the communications sector.
