Project COSMOS Overview (Columbia, Rutgers and NYU Collaboration) Presentation

June 3, 2-3 pm
EB2 1226

Abstract
The COSMOS project (https://cosmos-lab.org/) is aimed at design,
development, and deployment of a city-scale advanced wireless testbed
in order to support real-world experimentation on next-generation
wireless technologies and applications.
The COSMOS architecture has a particular focus on ultra-high bandwidth
and low latency wireless communication tightly coupled with edge cloud
computing. The COSMOS testbed will be deployed in upper Manhattan and
will consist of 40-50 advanced software-defined radio nodes along with
fiber-optic front-haul and back-haul networks and edge and core cloud
computing infrastructure. Researchers will be able to run experiments
remotely on the COSMOS testbed by logging into a web-based portal
which will provide various facilities for experiment execution,
measurements, and data collection.
