Cifre contract on Throughput Prediction in Mobile Networks

Participants: Yann Busnel

This is a Cifre contract (2015-2018) including a PhD thesis supervision (PhD of Alassane Samba), done with Orange, on cooperation in statistical approaches for the prediction of throughput without history. Throughput has a strong impact on user experience in cellular networks. The ability to predict the throughput of a connection, before it starts, brings new possibilities, particularly to Internet service providers. They could adapt contents to the quality of service really reachable by users, in order to enhance their experience.
