The ACCESS Industrial Partnership Program fosters cooperation between academia and industry, enhancing research and development in antenna technologies and signal processing. This initiative provides a framework for joint projects funded by industry, European programs, and organizations such as SSF and VINNOVA. Participants gain access to advanced ideas from academia, engage in seminars, workshops, and internships, and collaborate on real-world challenges like multi-antenna transmission. It ensures the future competence of researchers in industry-relevant areas, boosting innovation in communication systems.

Industrial Partnership Program A platform for interaction and cooperation with industrial partners • Framework to develop new third-party funded projects • Membership to ACCESS Industrial Advisory Board • Entrance for industry to other ACCESS activities • Excellent base for providing industry-access to the latest ideas in academia and possibilities for establishing joint research projects when similar interests arise • Ensures future availability of researchers with competence in ”industry-relevant” areas
Joint Research Projects • ACCESS Industrial Partnership Program provides an efficient organization and infrastructure for joint projects • Reduce number of administrative interfaces between ACCESS and industrial collaborators • Projects funded by industry and third parties such as • European framework programs • Swedish Foundation for Strategic Research (SSF) • Swedish Governmental Agency for Innovation Systems (VINNOVA)
ACCESS activities for industry ACCESS activities foster interaction for industry partners: • Seminar activity: e.g., Distinguished Lecture Series, Industrial Workshops • Mobility programs: academic and industrial researcher exchange including internships for PhD students • Graduate courses: participation in courses organized and funded by the Center • Contract education: requested and funded by partners • Annual research progress: meetings and reports
Project examples • Multi-antenna Transmission and Scheduling in IMT-Advanced • SERAN – simple and efficient radio access networks
Multi-antenna Transmission and Scheduling in IMT-Advanced Signal Processing and Communication Theory at KTH, Access Technologies and Signal Processing at Ericsson Research. Extension of an ongoing VINNOVA project. Keywords: Multi-antenna transmission, cooperative and opportunistic transmission, channel adaption, scheduling, channel sounding.
Multi-antenna Transmission and Scheduling in IMT-Advanced, cont. Main idea: Evaluate transmission schemes on real-world measured channels. Identify issues not found using standard channel models. New research problems. Wideband multi-antenna channel measurements done by Ericsson Research. Additional multi-site measurements done by KTH.
3G LTE: 4x4 MIMO Field-Experiments Ericsson HQ buildingin Kista Througput (Mbps/10MHz) Issue-at-hand: Link Adaptation- modulation/coding- antenna selection- transmit schemes
SERAN: Simple and efficient radio networks Aim: develop theory and methodologies that • Reduces innovation cycle for system suppliers, • Increases special efficiency, • Simplifies deployment and operations, and • Improves user experience Key components: • Distributed mechanisms for optimal radio resource management • Cooperative communications • Networking solutions for improved user-level performance
SERAN Draws from previous successful collaborations: • Advanced RRM, Network Coding (Vinnova/Branschforsk) Leverages on current EU project • Ecube, EuroNF, Sendora, Winner+ Includes specific actions for improved collaborations • Mobility program, internship program, workshops Team: • M. Johansson, G. Karlsson, M. Skoglund, … EES/KTH • J. Lundsjö, G. Fodor, P. Larsson, M. Prytz, … ERA
