| 1 | HOMESNET
Home Base Station: An Emerging Network Paradigm Shown at the exhibition: The femto-cell technology provides a mean to enhance indoor coverage, throughputs and quality of service. Furthermore, the important portion of indoor traffic allows femtocells to alleviate macro-cell load. Self-organizing network (SON) mechanisms have been introduced in standards and vendor roadmaps to allow self-management of femtocells. This demo illustrates a heterogeneous network with macro and open access femtocells empowered by an offloading SON functionality. When the SON offloading is enabled, the femto-cells adapt their coverage area and offload macro-cell traffic by self-optimizing their pilot power. The SON mechanism is fully distributed and robust in terms of convergence and stability. The offloading process is showcased on a LTE network simulator and the performance gain achieved is visualized on monitored KPIs. |

| 5 | MEVICO
Mobile Networks Evolution for Individual Communications Experience Technologies and solutions for the evolution of the LTE mobile core networks with 2 live demos and 1 video: 1) Video demonstration showing NMIP Handover performance between 3GPP and Wifi accesses. 2) Live demo on self organizing mobile backhaul access network utilizing high bandwidth point-to-point wireless connections in a mesh topology is presented. Flexible use of available transport capacity is demonstrated to recover dynamic traffic fluctuations in the given network topology. 3) Live demo on a testbed on Routing Optimization for Proxy Mobile IPv6 (PMIP-RO). The technology proposed enhances the routing procedure of PMIP by allowing selection of local anchoring point within and/or outside the EPC. The purpose is to show the evolution of traffic performances when optimized and the impact of offloaded traffic in the 3GPP EPC. Background traffic will be generated and the performances of all background traffic and optimized traffic will be monitored |

IPNQSIS
IP Network Monitoring for Quality of Service Intelligent Support Shown at the exhibition: -Service optimization (demo). Swedish consortium initiative to show the video tools for service optimization in a network. Network conditions will be altered using a network emulator to see how the system adapts to the new situation. In addition an external monitoring tool will be employed to show the suitability of the demo. -Multimedia Quality models (demo). Joint Finnish (VTT) and Swedish (Alkit) initiative in which audio quality model will be embedded into commercial tool to give a general perspective of the multimedia QoE (voice and video). -IPTV QoE (demo). French consortium (IT, Vierling) initiative showing network monitoring of video flows to determine QoS KPIs and estimate QoE level. Flows with different quality will be analysed so that one can see if the mapping between estimated levels and perceived quality is good. A prototype monitoring tool called MMT will be used. -Customer Experience Lab (demo). Demo of UPEC’s frameworks for the subjective quality assessment of video flows (through a plugin embedded in a Web browser). |

| 9 | 4GBB
4th Generation Broadband Systems Shown at the exhibition: Proof-of-concept for an ultimate DSL technology. A hardware demo of the high frequency DSL possibilities intended in a hybrid system together with fiber |
 |
| 10 | R2D2Networks
Road to media-aware user-Dependant
self-adaptive Networks Shown at the exhibition: The first prototype of the NRM, the central architectural element of R2D2 will be shown. The main goal of the demonstration is to show how the NRM can receive feedback from a user concerning the QoE, check the status of the different Network Elements and apply corrective actions to improve the QoE. Since the actual testbed of R2D2 cannot be removed from the premises is set up (too heavy in terms of equipment), the system will be simulated with a couple of PCs, which will contain a video source, the NRM, a client player, and several emulators for the network elements. |
