Brief Description of Research Areas

The IEEE 5G/6G Innovation Testbed aims to support both industry and academia with network testing and development. We started with a baseline architecture that is fully cloud-based, with open-source components integrated together in a cluster of virtual machines to create a living end-to-end 5G network emulator that can enable interoperability, conformance, security, and other testing. We have also added physical access points and have connected our digital hub to the hardware at major research facilities. The flexible and customizable nature of the infrastructure makes it an excellent platform for research, development, and collaboration.
