The WiMedia Alliance will partner with the Wireless Alliance for Testing Experiment and Research (WALTER) to focus on furthering European development of technology required for measurement, calibration and testing of ultra-wideband (UWB) radio products.
This collaboration, called the WALTER project, includes several partners worldwide and aims to create a pan-European interconnected testbed and to boost the European innovation potential to develop new applications and services based on high capacity networks, according to the WiMedia Alliance.
Through this collaboration, researchers with the WALTER project will have access to members of the WiMedia Alliance who are involved in the development of the specifications.
The WiMedia Alliance will also have access to WALTER regulatory tests and to three WALTER independent testing labs located in Europe and China.
