Wireless Deployable Network System

WIDENS was a two-year co-operative Research and Development project involving European industries and universities. The project was supported by the European Commission under the IST Framework Programme 6. It ended in January 2006. The overall objective of the WIDENS project was to design, prototype and validate a high data-rate, rapidly deployable and scalable wireless ad-hoc communication system for future public safety, emergency and disaster applications.
