Presentation from InterDigital - Creating Tomorrow's Network of Network

Creating Tomorrow's Network of Networks
InterDigital executives will present a company overview and provide an in-depth look at its technology roadmap. With an eye on the future, InterDigital extends an invitation to companies across the wireless ecosystem to collaborate on solving some of the toughest technical challenges that will help shape the future of wireless.
Today, our vision of tomorrow’s Network of Networks guides InterDigital’s internal R&D efforts, partnerships and targeted investments. Our holistic approach to solving the wireless bandwidth crunch is focused on three comprehensive areas of innovation: spectrum optimization, cross-network connectivity and mobility, and intelligent data delivery techniques. In simpler terms, you can think of it as bigger pipes, more pipes, and better pipes. In order to solve the significant bandwidth demand being placed on wireless networks by smartphones, netbooks, tablets and the like, we envision a seamless integration of multiple communications networks, including both cellular and non-cellular air interfaces, that intelligently and constantly connect people and things across a myriad of wide, local, and personal area networks.
