In Industry ry Contribution Dis iscussions Abhimanyu Gosain Technical Program Director https://www.advancedwireless.org/
COSMOS:Cloud Enhanced Open Software Defined Mobile Wireless Testbed for City-Scale Deployment • A multi-layered computing system with an RF thin client; flexible signal processing; network function virtualization (NFV) between a local SDR (with FPGA assist) and a remote cloud radio access network (CRAN) with massive CPU/GPU and FPGA assist • Deployed in New York City,one of the country’s most populated urban centers, • Wideband radio signal processing (with bandwidths of ~500 MHz or more) • Support for mmWave communication (28 and 60 GHz), • Optical switching technology (~1µs) provides passive WDM switch fabrics and 28GHz phased-array ICs and phased- • radio over fiber interfaces for ultra-low latency connections array antenna modules (PAAM) COSMOS Radio Site Design All-Optical Network Design Deployment Area: West Manhattan/Harlem
POWDER: Platform for RENEW: A Reconfigurable Eco- Open Wireless Data-driven system for Next-generation Experimental Research End-to-end Wireless • Next Generation Wireless Architecture • RENEW Massive MIMO base station • Dynamic Spectrum Sharing • End-to-End Programmable • Distinct environments: a dense urban • Diverse Spectrum Access 50 MHz-3.8GHz downtown and a hilly campus environment. • Hybrid Edge computer composed of FPGA and GPU/CPU-based processing, • Hub Board aggregates/distributes streams of radio samples Deployment Area: UofU Campus +Downtown SLC + Connected Corridor IRIS software- defined radio modules Control Framework with Hardware + Software Building Blocks Architectural view of RENEW base station
Sample Sce cenario I have a really cool idea about a fully autonomous spectrum management application That is cool. I have a radio that supports that I want to develop a custom radio that has more processing power on the sensing channel; maybe GPP on the radio I don’t know about that. Adding multi -core processor might take 12-18 months and cost $XXX,XXX.
Guiding principles • The Industry contribution is a NEW process for all stakeholders. • PPO serves as a bridge in connecting Industry teams and the platform awardees • PPO serves both the IC and the Proposing team • IC requires a clear understanding of design goals, product specs and capability timeline • Proposing teams requires a clear understanding on product availability (not exact dates) and feasibility view on proposed capabilities • PPO needs to understand the % value of the IC contribution against committed value of contribution • Define short term goals (like signing LOI and contracts) and work in progress items (like lock down requirements, specifications etc) clearly and separately while flagging any linkages
Consortium-Platform interaction points 1. Initially, triage interactions through PPO 2. Introductory webinar presentations with both platforms 3. Individual interaction(s) scheduled by PPO 4. PPO has a holistic view of platform requirements 5. PPO is working on matching requirements to IC members, beginning with NI, Juniper, Nokia, and Keysight
DOs • Establish clear goals and deliverables for the IC and Proposing teams • Establish POCs from both sides for technical discussions • Enable direct conversations between the 2 teams • Output from IC to the Proposing team (and PPO): • Initial output: Feasibility of product availability • 90 day view: Forecast on product availability and volume guidance • High level % contributed per platform against the total contribution (accounting mechanism- tbd) • Create a tracking framework for IC- Proposing teams to track product delivery and forecast along with any deltas • Output from the Proposing team to IC (and PPO): • Initial output: • Feasibility analysis materials- Platform design and high level specifications for feasibility analysis along with product capabilities targeted. • High level timeline for the product delivery and deployment timeline • 90 day view: • Detailed platform design with capabilities • Bill of Materials (BOM)
DON ’T’s • Product cost is not a discussion topic • Product availability and volume negotiation only through the PPO
