SISYVOS - Smart integrated radio systems for networked mobility and logistics

Against the background of the rapidly increasing importance of wireless networking between vehicles, control centers and infrastructure, the main objective of this collaborative project is the joint research, development and testing of intelligent radio systems for road vehicles, with a particular focus on the next mobile communications standard 5G, which will use multi-antenna systems (MIMO) and distributed data processing (integration of the antenna with electronics). In addition to the development of antenna structures suitable for this application (conformal metal-area-tolerant designs, coverage of different frequency ranges), the further processing of the radio signals by means of appropriate front-ends and integrated electronic circuits is particularly imperative. The radio system to be developed is to be integrated functionally into plastic components specified by the vehicle manufacturer in the exterior area on vehicles without changing the appearance of the vehicle.
