OpenAirInterface is an open-source hardware/software development platform and open-forum for innovation in the area of digital radio communications, created in the context of collaborative research projects (mainly French ANR and European Framework programs). Historically, the development of OpenAirInterface started with the RNRT 2000 projects PLATON and ERMITAGES in the French context, and with the IST project MOBYDICK in the European context. In the framework of those 3 projects, we have developed the first hardware components and the first software modules (PHY/MAC/RRC). After this first generation of projects, we have used the previous results to : Enhance the functionalities the platform (RNRT2002 RHODOS, IST E2R) Develop new research themes, by using the platform as a validation tool for All-IP Wireless Networking, Radio Resource Management and Real-time Radio Signal Processing.
From this period, the same strategy has been used to develop the OpenAirInterface program : on the one hand some projects to enhance and update the platform itself, and on the other hand some projects that use the available platform to validate new research for wireless systems. The projects from 2004 to 2005 addressed mainly the topics of All-IP Wireless Networking, Radio Resource Management and Real-time Radio Signal Processing. From 2006, new themes of research were developed in the frame of OpenAirInterface : Agile RF System Design wideband radio design, linear wide-dynamic range receivers and "intelligent" RF with the projects ANR IDROMEL and E2R2 Design and Simulation Methodologies (efficient simulation methods, abstraction techniques (hardware modeling, PHY sub-system modeling, traffic modeling, etc.) in the framework of IST WIDENS and CHORIST RF emulation architectures for distributed real-time simulation of wireless networks (IST project UNITE) Propagation and System Measurements and their Analysis (eMOS)
