On August 13, 2024, at the seminar of the Institute of Radiocommunications and the meeting of the Polish Chapter of IEEE Communications Society, a lecture on " Next Generation Multiple Access from Basic Principles to Modern Architectures " was delivered by Prof. Eduard A. Jorswieck from Technische Universitaät Braunschweig in Germany.
Eduard A. Jorswieck, IEEE Fellow, is a Full Professor with Technische Universitaät Braunschweig, Brunswick, Germany, and the Head of the Chair for Communications Systems. He is a world-class expert in communications, applied information theory, and signal processing for networks with more than 180 journal articles, 17 book chapters, one book, four monographs, and some 300 conference papers published.
Abstract: The pressure to develop new network architectures and multiple access technologies is driven by increasing demands on network performance, number of devices, network traffic and use cases. Recent advances in open radio access networks with open interfaces and software-defined network functionalities allow adaptability in terms of medium access control and physical layer, but also flexibility in terms of network architectures. The aim of this tutorial is to provide a comprehensive overview of the current set of network architectures for wireless access together with next generation multiple access technologies. It starts with the classical models for MAC, BC, IC from network information theory and derives the fundamental results on capacity regions and their coding and signal processing schemes. Extensions to multi-carrier, multi-antenna and multi-cell scenarios are discussed. The evolution from orthogonal to SDMA, NOMA and RSMA techniques and their performance guarantees are carefully explained. Recent advances towards multiconnectivity, cloud RAN and CFMA are explained. The data rate benefits of an anecdotal open RAN network are developed, and corresponding user data rates are calculated. Massive random and grant-free access schemes are also discussed. The tutorial concludes with a list of open research questions.

Construction of a second antenna system at the Kąkolewo campus
At the beginning of April, thanks to nice weather conditions, the installation and testing of a secondary satellite antenna system took place in Kąkolewo campus.
Engineers from SpaceComm company, the main system supplier, installed the set of VHF/UHF YAGI antennas as well as C-band, 4.5m diameter parabolic antenna at the top of the tower. All antennas use a single rotator which enables tracking low earth orbit satellites fast and efficiently. The YAGI antennas may be remotely configured to operate in HOR/VERT/RHCP/LHCP modes, independently for transmission and reception of satellite signals. All RF and control cables were installed as well, together with transmitters and receivers (SDR based) and control equipment inside the technical container. The system was calibrated and some initial tests were performed successfully. In the next phase all systems will be integrated and connected to PUT network for remote operation from our control center, located in the Institute of Radiocommunications facilities.

COST INTERACT Training School on Open RAN
In the last days, from 5th to 7th July 2022, Poznan University of Technology and Rimedo Labs have organized under the auspices of COST INTERACTCA20120 the summer training school on “Open-RAN networks: from theory to implementation.”
The meeting was held in a hybrid model, where both in-person and remote participants were allowed to join and benefit from the school. The key focus of the school was on Open Ran, which is a recent and vibrant trend in the telecommunications market, especially in the 5G area, aiming at the realization of various challenging objectives. These include at first spot splitting of a base station into several functional components, including a central unit (CU), distributed unit (DU), and a remote unit (RU). Next, they deal with opening interfaces to enable interoperability (especially Open Fronthaul) and disaggregating software from hardware in the RAN domain. Finally, the Open RAN introduces advanced automation into the RAN system by employing an abstracted entity to manage the radio networks, i.e., the RAN Intelligent Controller (RIC); it serves as a platform for xApps (optimization applications in the RAN domain) and rApps (optimization applications in the management plane) using AI/ML.
The participants of the school will have the opportunity to deepen their knowledge and experience in various domains of Open RAN during three highly attractive training days. The first day was mainly oriented on the theoretic background related to the Open RAN domain, whereas the second day was more industry-oriented. Finally, on the third day, the hand-on labs have been provided to the attendees. The participants have access to the prerequisites for O-RAN software installation, have been guided in real-time through the arcana of xApp implementation in SD-RAN, and have access to the recordings afterward, so they can easily reproduce the whole lab.
The overall event was highly successful; there were overall 70+ registrations, where 18 of them have been in-persons. Also, many speakers participated in person, which makes the school highly interactive with very strong off-side discussions and connections. Finally, the scores received in the evaluation surveys circulated among the participants are very high, which proves the impact of the school. Such great achievement was reached due to the fantastic engagement of both speakers, local organizers, but also the in-person attendees who actively participated in the event.
As school co-organizers, we would like to thank all the persons involved for their positive attitude and vivid involvement in the event, which made it highly successful. We would also like to thank our event partners, Rimedo Labs, EURACON and COST CA20120 INTERACT, for the support and the opportunity to organize it! Special thanks go to all the speakers for their valuable insights, namely:
