We are very excited to announce that in our MAMIME project, the world's first maritime massive MIMO channel measurement campaign with a research vessel for autonomous operations was successfully performed in Trondheimfjord.

MAMIME project funded by Norwegian Research Council Maroff program (2016-2019), aims to develop an optimized LTE and WIFI system and research dedicated 5G solutions for the maritime applications, especially for land-to-boat and boat-to-boat communications, which fits for both telecommunication R&D trend and Norwegian interests. These innovative solutions have the potential of extending the radio coverage and providing more stable radio link and much higher throughput.
