D4.2 “Design of signalling schemes, protocols, and algorithmsfor energy-neutral devices”
Design of signaling schemes, protocols, and algorithms for energy-neutral devices. Report on the system design studies for achieving wireless power transfer, and efficient communications with energy neutral devices, while leveraging environment awareness.
D4.1 “System design study for energy-neutral devices interacting with the RadioWeaves infrastructure”
This document provides fundamental performance limits of a RadioWeaves infrastructure with respect to the interaction with energy neutral devices. In particular, the maximum regulatory-compliant power budget and achievable initial access distance are derived, and backscatter communication schemes and data rates are discussed. Emphasis has been put on an efficiency model as well as a channel model representing wireless power transfer in a physically correct manner and the verification thereof using realistic measurements.
D3.2 “Methods for Communication and Initial Access with RadioWeaves”
D3.2 provides a framework for communication and initial access in networks with RadioWeaves, including
both communication-theoretic analysis and numerical simulations from Task 3.1 and Task 3.3, as well as the key insights and guidelines for practical design. D3.2 will in particular demonstrate how to reach the application needs set in WP1.
D1.2 “Propagation characteristics and channel models for RadioWeaves including reflectarrays”
D1.2 reports on the work performed for task T1.2 focusing on radio channel measurement, characterization and modelling for RadioWeaves (RW). To study channel characteristics of RW in real indoor environments, several measurement campaigns were conducted in Lund and Graz. We used various measurement settings in terms of geometric configurations of array and user equipments (UEs), static/dynamic environments, line-of-sight (LoS)/non-line-ofsight (NLoS) propagation conditions and signal bandwidth, etc, to simulate different RW use cases that are defined in deliverable D1.1.

D1.1 “Use case-driven specifications and technical requirements and initial channel model”
D1.1 provides an inventory of interactive use case specifications, representative deployment scenarios, technical requirements and KPIs for the four focus domains. D1.1 includes the initial channel model based on existing measurements and models. It reports on the particular investigation of the origin of latency in wireless applications.
D2.1 “Initial assessment of architectures and hardware resources for a RadioWeaves infrastructure”
D2.1 provides an initial assessment of the RadioWeaves infrastructure, developed in WP2 of REINDEER. Taking the description of RadioWeaves in D1.1 and the use cases and KPIs defined therein, as a starting point, a first version of the building blocks of the infrastructure are presented, together with new terminology. Architecture and topology are introduced together with a quantitative and qualitative analysis of high-level requirements on a RadioWeaves infrastructure, setting the scope for more detailed investigations and design.
D3.1 “Analytical Performance Metrics and Physical-Layer Solutions”
D3.1 develops a framework for physical-layer performance evaluation of RadioWeaves. Specifically, an effective-SINR abstraction model is developed and shown to be accurate and highly efficient in terms of computational complexity. Furthermore, this document evaluates complexity of existing algorithms in terms of computational load and front-haul signaling for different cell-free topologies considered in the literature. It also proposes efficient algorithms for distributed MIMO processing of RadioWeaves with centralized and decentralized approaches.
D6.1 “Internal and external IT communication infrastructure and project website”
This deliverable presents the REINDEER communication kit, including the project’s visual identity as well as communication and dissemination materials, which are used within the project.
D6.3 “Updated plan and initial report on dissemination and communication activities”
This report constitutes an updated plan and initial report on the partners` dissemination and communication activities of the first 12 months. It also includes an overview of the advancements in terms of spectrum harmonization that took place in different radio regulatory bodies (e.g. as the ITU), and a short forecast on how current advancements may shape 6G in terms of, e.g. overall requirements, allocated spectrum parts, etc.
D7.1 “Project Quality Plan”
This Project Quality Plan constitutes a set of project templates and explanations on the project management process, review process, quality checks and meeting organisation, which are communicated to all partners.
