Importance of network virtualization solutions, modeling and simulation: we use Ecrios IMS (IP Multimedia Subsystem) server, USRP (Universal Software Radio Peripheral) devices, GNU Radio, ns-3 and other simulation packages. Future Plans One Example: Radar Interference into LTE Service at 800 MHz Band Towards 5G... Radio channel modeling and experimental research focusing on spectral efficiency improvement by employing spatial radio signal modulation. Influence of environmental factors on heterogeneous network design and performance. Impact of LTE 800MHz signal on digital terrestrial television services (DVB-T)
