People on the move always have demands to use the same terminal every time and everywhere. They would like to use e.g. their laptops during their holidays (in busses and trains) and in the hotel resort for internet access without any reconfiguration. Services that are distributed locally and therefore cannot be used while travelling right now - for example push data services (including streaming media) via broadcast - should be accessible as usual.

The study will answer the following questions:

• How to provide broadband data from/to temporary and fixed hot spot networks in a standard and cost effective way?
• How to establish different kinds of hot spots (different cell sizes, different types of networks) in an easy way?
• How to distribute content within the hot spot networks to all kind of terminals with the same performance customers use to have?
• What is the potential in the market place for (ad hoc-) services in such kind of networks?
