In this paper, we provide information about Wireless Telecommunication Technologies Research Laboratory (KİTAL) which has been established at TÜBİTAK BİLGEM under the sponsorship of Ministry of Development. KİTAL, which will significantly increase the R&D capabilities of Turkey in the area of wireless telecommunication technologies, provides a laboratory infrastructure for experimenting different aspects of heterogenous networks. It will include equipments for R&D activities of both second and third generation technologies (GSM, UMTS, etc.) and fourth generation technologies (LTE, WiMax, etc.) whose standardization has been going on. KİTAL will also provide infrastructure for R&D of next generation tactical wireless telecommunication technologies towards enabling Network Centric Warfare. KİTAL infrastructure will be available to other organizations to support wireless telecommunication R&D activities in Turkey.
