Ericsson conducts the first IPv6 over 3G WCDMA network
January 31, 2003
An ambulance demonstration today showed vital medical data, voice
and video using IPv6 and seamlessly roaming over 2G and 3G systems
as well as wireless LANs. As part of the EU-project IPv6 Wireless
Internet Initiative (6WINIT) it signifies an important step towards
the vision of mobile users being "Always Best Connected".
Three key technologies were brought together for the first time
to show the usefulness of seamless mobile services: next generation
Internet (IPv6), 3G (UMTS/WCDMA) and Multi-Access.
The medical emergency system, called Guardian Angel, can seamlessly
move between different types of access networks - whatever is the
best available in a certain location. From a hospital setting, doctors
can observe the patient in the ambulance, check the heart rate and
blood pressure, using mobile networks such as GSM/GPRS or UMTS/WCDMA.
Once the ambulance reaches the hospital, the system can automatically
switch over to an indoor WLAN hot spot. Data flows can use separate
network interfaces in parallel. For example, if the WLAN does not
have sufficient reliability, vital data transmissions could simultaneously
use a GSM/GPRS or UMTS/WCDMA channel.
The demonstration was a joint effort within the 6WINIT project
consisting of University Hospital at Tübingen, University of Stuttgart
Computing Center, University of Bremen, University College London
and Ericsson. It took place at Ericsson's headquarters in Stockholm
in the presence of invited EU-officials as part of the Final Review
of the EU project.
