- The foreseen growth in mobile data traffic has spurred mobile stakeholders to implement solutions that include Wi-Fi-mobile interoperability, that hinges on mobile operators exploiting unlicensed spectrum to provide additional capacity. However, there are limited solutions that investigate how to ensure fairness for all users of Wi-Fi spectrum. The proposed innovation targets a cloud-based coexistence scheme building on the 4G LTE that promotes fairness by balancing the radio access delay for all users of Wi-Fi spectrum. This work led to the i-Five research proposal (P2020-FCT-iFive-30500), that was awarded 250K Euros funding by the Portuguese national research agency (jonathan@av.it.pt).
