The Wireless Access Laboratory focuses on the key elements of the
next generation mobile wireless networks: Heterogeneous wireless
access and IP-based infrastructure. These fundamental ingredients
are required to support the innovative, profitable, value-added
services that will constitute a foundation for DoCoMo’s long-term
growth. Wireless Access Laboratory researchers are developing novel
architectures, protocols, algorithms and standards to establish
this foundation. In critical areas we are working with NTT DoCoMo
to provide design and analysis expertise, and significant standards
leadership. We are also collaborating with leading companies and
universities to leverage synergies and multiply our mutual efforts
towards these goals.
