Towards improvement of the broadband service for rural communities
EF 2016-17
Résumé
Broadband wireless connectivity is a key element to create an enabling environment in rural and remote areas.In this sense, it is important to adaptively manage the network resources to maximize the capacity/ throughputin order to contend with the increasing demand on multimedia services.To this end, the proposed project aims to investigate innovative techniques to classify, model, and predict thereal-time real-user data traffic, and then provide an adaptive structure for an intelligent cloud radio accessnetwork accordingly.The results of the project will benefit the company, which will increase its capability to provide broadbandservices to rural areas, communities in rural areas, and finally, Canada. According to the Canadian governmentpress release (2016), ""Canadians in all regions of the country need access to reliable, high-speed Internet so thatthey can fully participate in the digital economy."" In this sense, the project represents a step forward inproviding a reliable broadband wireless access to rural and remote communities.
