Using The GENI LTE Testbed for Mobility and Edge Cloud Research

Description

This video introduces the 4G LTE standard and highlights the architecture, site resources and applications of a GENI LTE site and its integration with the GENI testbed. The programmable components of this system are demonstrated by running representative experiments.

To highlight the usability of this distributed radio platform, and the GENI rack, we will run a Cloud RAN experiment on the LTE system running in ORBIT. This entails processing of a traditional eNode basestation into two units, and we demonstrate using one machine to manage the radio , and the other to do the baseband processing. The LTE basestation, clients and EPC (Evolve Packet Core) will all be running on GENI.
