Popis: The objectives of the End-to-End Reconfigurability (E 2 R) research project are to bring the full benefits of the valuable diversity within the radio eco-space, composed of a wide range of systems (such as cellular, wireless local area and broadcast), and to devise, develop and trial architectural design of reconfigurable devices and supporting system functions to offer an expanded set of operational choices to the different actors of the value chain in the context of heterogeneous mobile radio systems. The E 2 R project will help operators to better exploit their investments on infrastructures and terminals and ensure that the infrastructure will be flexible and reconfigurable to accommodate evolving standards, applications and the end-user needs. E 2 R is seen by many actors of the wireless industry as a core technology to enable the full potential of beyond 3G systems. It has the potential to revolutionize wireless just as the PC revolutionized computing. This paper presents the E 2 R research project, its architectural framework and approach, the main fields of investigations across the different technical workpackages in 2005, as well as the E 2 R Phase 2 project proposal ambitions (2006-2007).
