Wireless communications lie today at the very heart of many key applications that strongly impact most aspects of our daily life. Fundamental paradigm shifts are yet expected due to ongoing developments in wireless. These paradigm shifts shall allow communication infrastructure to self-organize seamlessly for optimized spectrum-, cost- and energy-efficiency. In the new realm of the internet of things (IoT), they shall also enable communication links to take place not only between persons, but also between smart machines (such as home appliances), devices and vehicles (M2M/D2D/V2V), connections due to reach tens of billions by 2020. These paradigm shifts are poised to enable truly smart communications in the future. Parallel developments in wireless due to successful integration with new sensor and radar systems have recently sprang the emergence of new smart monitoring applications in health, environment, safety, security, etc. And cross-fertilization between smart communications and monitoring allow wireless to stand today as a crucial enabler of future applications in smart management of power grids, vehicles, homes, cities, etc. Due to their increasing pervasiveness, these three smart applications of wireless (communications, monitoring and management) are deeply shaping today the 21st-century digital economy. The short-term objective of this research program is to tackle the transformative challenges smart communications will shortly face at the radio access level in its current shift from installation (communications for communications) to deployment (communications to the service of new applications). In order to meet the expected data crunch, we seek to devise novel radio access strategies that enable truly smart communications by rethinking some of the key technical drivers foreseen today within the context of HetNet virtualization at both PHY and MAC layers. Virtualization is a fundamental paradigm shift that is pledged to push these strategies to a full-fledged scale of flexibility, manageability and efficiency in cost, spectrum and power. By achieving this immediate goal, the long-term objective of this program is to enable pervasive and smart applications of wireless in the 21st century digital economy.

当今的无线通信是许多关键应用的核心，这些应用极大地影响了我们日常生活的大多数方面。由于无线的持续发展，基本范式转移尚未发生。这些范式的转移应允许通信基础设施无缝地自组织，以进行优化的光谱，成本和能源效率。在物联网的新领域（IoT）中，它们还应使沟通链接不仅在人之间进行，而且还可以在智能机器（例如家用电器），设备和车辆（M2M/D2D/V2V）之间进行，连接到2020年的数十亿美元的连接，到2020年到达数十亿美元。 Parallel developments in wireless due to successful integration with new sensor and radar systems have recently sprang the emergence of new smart monitoring applications in health, environment, safety, security, etc. And cross-fertilization between smart communications and monitoring allow wireless to stand today as a crucial enabler of future applications in smart management of power grids, vehicles, homes, cities, etc. Due to their increasing pervasiveness, these three smart applications of wireless (communications, monitoring当今，管理层和管理层正在深深地塑造21世纪的数字经济。该研究计划的短期目标是应对智能通信的变革性挑战将很快在无线电访问级别上面对当前从安装（通信通信）到部署（通信到新应用程序服务）的转变。为了满足预期的数据紧缩，我们试图设计新颖的无线电访问策略，通过在PHY和MAC层的HETNET虚拟化的背景下重新思考今天的一些关键技术驱动程序，从而实现真正的智能通信。虚拟化是一种基本的范式转变，该范式旨在将这些策略推向成熟的灵活性，可管理性和成本，频谱和权力的效率。通过实现这一直接目标，该计划的长期目标是在21世纪的数字经济中实现无线的普遍应用和智能应用。
