  1. PhantomNetAn end-to-end mobile network testbed Kobus Van der Merwe Robert Ricci

  2. PhantomNet Programmable end-to-end mobile testbed to enable research at the intersection of mobile networking, cloud computing and softwaredefined networking • Remotely accessible and sharable (Emulab style)

  3. Base functionality • Physical deployment • Mobile devices • Small cell deployment (LTE based) • SDN capable backbone • Cloud infrastructure • Software • “Mobile network toolkit”: • Modular evolved packet core (EPC) software • Emulab control framework

  4. Mobile network toolkit • Create “standard” mobile network architectures: • E.g., 4G: LTE + EPC • Replace some/all components to realize different architectures: • Cloudlet-like architecture • Softcell

  5. Status • Integrated OpenEPC with Emulab • Uses emulation for RAN (UE and eNodeB) • Specifies LTE/EPC topology using NS file with PhantomNet enhancements • Brings up experiment with correct e2e configurations • External availability by end of April • Hardware RAN interworking with EPC • Lab setup: • UE (Huawei modem), eNodeB (ipaccess small cell) • Functioning with OpenEPC in Emulab environment
