Abstract

As evolving wireless network architectures become more diverse, complex, and interdependent, and equipment costs prohibit broad access to such networks, remotely accessible experimental testbeds are gaining interest in recent years in wireless communication and networking research. This interest has exacerbated in 2020 and became a vital need during the current global pandemic. However, providing end-users of various educational backgrounds access to radio devices from a heterogeneous set of vendors is challenging. This paper introduces OneLNK, a remotely accessible testbed consisting of radio devices from three different vendors and developed using open source cloud-native technologies. End-users can access the functionalities of OneLNK from a single webpage without any local installations. Using the web URL, users can operate radio devices, set experiment parameters, observe results in real-time, and save generated experiment data for all radio devices. The interactive web UI and its working mechanism for supporting radio equipment are covered with specific experiment capabilities. A diverse set of radio equipment (mmWave, sub-GHz SDR, and sub-6GHz SDR) are facilitated to explain these capabilities. Moreover, measurements of path loss, Received Signal Strength (RSS), and Signal-to-Noise Ratio (SNR) using devices from three different vendors operating on a vast spectrum (568 MHz, 5.8 GHz, and 60 GHz) are reported. The majority of the remotely accessible OneLNK platform was developed remotely during the pandemic by a team of experts from five U.S. states.
OneLNK:一个链接来统治他们所有:基于web的无线实验为多供应商远程访问的室内/室外测试平台
随着不断发展的无线网络架构变得更加多样化、复杂和相互依赖,以及设备成本限制了对此类网络的广泛访问,远程访问实验试验台近年来在无线通信和网络研究中获得了越来越多的兴趣。这种关注在2020年加剧,并在当前全球大流行期间成为一项至关重要的需求。然而,向具有不同教育背景的终端用户提供来自不同供应商的无线电设备访问是具有挑战性的。本文介绍了OneLNK,这是一个远程访问的测试平台,由来自三个不同供应商的无线电设备组成,使用开源云原生技术开发。最终用户可以从一个网页访问OneLNK的功能,而无需任何本地安装。通过web URL,用户可以操作无线电设备,设置实验参数,实时观察结果,并保存所有无线电设备生成的实验数据。交互式web UI及其支持无线电设备的工作机制涵盖了具体的实验能力。各种无线电设备(毫米波,sub-GHz SDR和sub-6GHz SDR)有助于解释这些功能。此外,路径损耗、接收信号强度(RSS)和信噪比(SNR)的测量使用来自三家不同供应商的设备在广阔的频谱(568 MHz、5.8 GHz和60 GHz)上进行。远程访问的OneLNK平台的大部分是由来自美国五个州的专家团队在大流行期间远程开发的。
