RU6 conducts research on mobile networks proposing innovative techniques in order to meet the Next Generation Mobile Networks high performance demands and contributing on the simulation and evaluation of existing and proposed technologies.

RU6 research in this area deals with the latest developments in wired networks, including the design, implementation, simulation and testing of existing and proposed technologies.

RU6 conducts research on cross-layer design and mechanisms and proposes cross-layer schemes to address various problems in wireless communications.

Simulation has always been a valuable tool for experimentation and validation of models, architectures and mechanisms in the field of networking. In order to study and validate wired and wireless network architecture issues we use several simulation environments.
