On Dependable Wireless Communications through Multi-Connectivity

The realization of wireless ultra-reliable low-latency communications (URLLC) is one of the key challenges of the fifth generation (5G) of mobile communications systems and beyond. Ensuring ultra-high reliability together with a latency in the (sub-)millisecond range is expected to enable self-driving cars, wireless factory automation, and the Tactile Internet. In wireless communications, reliability is usually only considered as percentage of successful packet delivery, aiming for 1 − 10⁻⁵ up to 1 − 10⁻⁹ in URLLC

Automated traffic analysis in aerial images

Wide range traffic monitoring for the tracking of overtaking manoeuvres is an issue of current research. The collected data will allow the updating of a model which describes overtaking manoeuvres depending on various boundary conditions. The model is used for road planning, e.g. recommendations may be provided to decide where driving on the oncoming traffic lane cannot be allowed due to traffic safety. The necessary update of the model requires wide area traffic observation. This challenging task has been solved by recording aerial image sequences in combination with an automated image analysis
