European projects
- 3DSAFEGUARD
- Global Situational Awareness in Rescue, Calamity and Inspection Operations
- 6G shine
- design of short-range communication protocols that can meet the extreme bandwidth, latency and energy requirements emerging for 6G.
- Bolster
- to design, develop and optimise a Beyond 5G (B5G) architecture for a private mobile standalone tactical network. The envisioned network will be able to be deployed in an automated and ad hoc manner by offering zero-touch commissioning, deployment, and configuration.
- Hexa-X-II
- The Smart Network and Services Joint Undertaking (SNS JU) 6G Flagship project Hexa-X-II leads the way to the end-to-end (E2E) system design (based on integrated and interacting technology enablers) and the enabling platform delivering novel services for the next generation (6G) of wireless networks.
- Oasees
- OASEES aims to create an open, decentralised, intelligent and programmable edge framework for swarm architectures and applications, leveraging the Decentralised Autonomous Organisation (DAO) paradigm and integrating Human-in-the-Loop (HITL) processes for efficient decision making with a portable and privacy preserving ID federation system.
- TrialsNet
- to promote the experimentation of use cases for the use of the 6G network, demonstrating the potential for interconnection between the physical, digital and human world with connectivity and application services with additional performance compared to current 5G platforms and new scenarios for large-scale IoT applications.
- EDIH-EBE
- EDIH-EBE provides a one-stop hub offering various services to increase the digital knowledge, skills and experience of Flemish companies focusing on energy applications in the construction sector to give them a competitive advantage. IDLab offers the HomeLab, for testing and validating new applications in a realistic home environment.
- LOLIPOP
- LOLIPOP is a photonic integration project based on the combination of lithium niobate on insulator and silicon-nitride technology. In this project IDLab is contributing custom high-speed drivers and low-noise transimpedance amplifiers for various applications (lidar, photonic neural networks and squeezed state detection)
- Sprinter
- Sprinter develops hybrid photonic integrated circuits for fiber-optic, free-space optical and mmWave communication systems supporting time critical networking in industrial environments. In this project IDLab is contributing custom high-speed drivers and low-noise transimpedance amplifiers for 1060nm VCSEL-based transceivers, O-band EML-based transceivers and burst-mode operation in fast tunable transceivers.
- 6G Start
- to facilitate the preparation activities of the European SNS Initiative and to orchestrate, capture and promote the achievements of the new 6G SNS initiative and the ongoing 5G PPP by facilitating its activities in the inter-project working groups and maintaining the links to the NetworldEurope community and the 5G IA membership.
- Onto-Deside
- The Onto-DESIDE project supports acceleration of the digital and green transitions, automating the discovery and formation of new collaborations in the circular economy. Within Onto-DESIDE (Ontology-based Decentralized Sharing of Industry Data in the European Circular Economy), IDLab will enable the efficient sharing of data and making it understandable and usable by humans and machines via a secure decentralised data sharing platform using Solid technologies.
- BD4NRG
- BD4NRG develops and demonstrates a big data architecture, data model and AI toolbox for the energy domain along 13 large-scale pilots. The IDLab-AI4E team researches transfer learning for demand response services.
- Dedicat 6G
- DEDICAT 6G (EU-funded project under the Horizon 2020 Programme) aims to develop a smart connectivity platform using artificial intelligence and blockchain techniques that will enable 6G networks to combine the existing communication infrastructure with novel distribution of intelligence (data, computation, and storage) at the edge to allow not only flexible, but also energy efficient realisation of the envisaged real-time experience.
- BIGG
- The BIGG project aims at demonstrating the application of big data technologies and data analytic techniques for the complete building life-cycle of more than 4000 buildings in 6 large-scale pilot testbeds.
- Bright
- The BRIGHT project aims at realizing a multi-timescale demand response strategy that works from a day-ahead scheduling up to real-time adaptive control and allows individual assets to simultaneously provide power balancing service, grid congestion management, and economic benefits to participating stakeholders.
- 5G blueprint
- 5G-Blueprint (EU-funded project under H2020-ICT-2018-20) aims to design and validate technical architecture and business and governance models for uninterrupted cross-border teleoperated transport based on 5G connectivity. The project’s outcome will be the blueprint for operational pan-European deployment of teleoperated transport solutions in the logistics sector and beyond.
- TwinECS
- The EU-funded TWINECS project aims to develop an efficient, robust, and accurate model to simulate electrical environmental control systems (e-ECS).
