Measuring WiFi angle of arrival

In this video, we give an end-to-end overview of how to conduct a realistic experiment. In this case, the scientific objectives are to compare the results of several methods for estimating the angle of arrival of a WiFi signal, on a receiver that has 3 aligned antennas, distant from one another by about half the wavelength.

This video emphasizes the usage of NEPI as a tool for designing the experiment logic. Check it out here :

Visiting the chamber using skype on top of a local 5G infrastructure based on OpenAirInterface

In this video, we illustrate how to leverage OpenAirInterface in order to

  • create a standalone 5G infrastructure inside R2Lab,
  • and deploy a base station on one of the nodes.

Based on this, we establish a skype session between a regular laptop and a commercial Nexus phone, right inside the chamber, and take this chance to give a physical tour of the chamber.

Later on, we use yet another node as a scrambling device to terminate the call.

Set up a 5G network in 5 minutes

The purpose is very similar to the previous one; here again we leverage OpenAirInterface in order to

  • create a standalone 5G infrastructure inside R2Lab,
  • deploy a base station on one of the nodes,
  • connect the dedicated phone inside the chamber,
  • measure bandwidth to the outside Internet with speedtest.net,
  • and visualize downlink and uplink spectrum.

Set up a 5G network in 8 minutes over kubernetes

Same old again, but over a kubernets cluster deployed over a few worker nodes in R2lab

Comparing OLSR and batman

In this video we show how to use this demo published on github, that uses nepi-ng and a Jupyter notebook to perform an objective comparison between two MANET routing protocols, namely OLSR and batman.
