Total EU contribution: €4,947,750.00
The strategic objective of the project is to provide high-quality 5G connectivity to the end customers of remote and sparsely populated areas in Greece for personal, business, and governmental growth, to enable efficient, state-of-the-art SGIs and to support the deployment of 5G infrastructure as part of the European Gigabit Society EU strategy. The main scope of the project is on the deployment of 5G New Radio equipment, along with the required upgrades in the wireless backhaul equipment, antennas and links to support the newly-deployed or upgraded RAN, towards delivering leading-edge connectivity with characteristics such as high performance in terms of bitrate and latency, capacity to connect IoT devices, as well as hight reliability. Besides the aforementioned works, key activities of the project comprise the specification and execution of use case scenarios for testing and validating the 5G infrastructure that will enable certain Socio-Economic Drivers (SEDs). Representative examples of use case domains include Services of General Interest (SGIs), namely Healthcare, Education and Civil Protection. Two SGI providers will be supporting the validation activities caried out by the technical partners, while several municipalities and relevant infrastructure, such as hospitals and schools located in Greece will be in scope. Municipalities represented directly by the two SGI providers, involved in the project comprise municipalities within the Regions of Central Greece, Crete, Thessaly, Epirus and Central Macedonia. Besides the municipalities that are directly involved, additional municipalities, which exhibit relevant aspects for the project are in scope, in Peloponnese, islands of the Northeastern Aegean Sea, etc.
