Architecture
Figure 1 presents a system view of the COSMOS testbed. It is based on a multi-layered computing system built in a bottom-up manner with commodity components, programmable hardware, and open-source software.
The collection of global testbed services are deployed on a pair of computing clusters located at WINLAB's ORBIT facility in North Brunswick, NJ and Columbia University CS data center (CRF) in West Harlem in New York City, NY.
[br] Figure 1: COSMOS Architecture
These core services are supporting multiple experimentation domains. As is shown in Figure 1, each of the domains consists of the following components:
- SDR nodes (user devices and radio hardware),
- edge cloud servers ("radio cloud")
- general purpose computing cloud servers ("core cloud")
- networking (both optical and electrical)
The core cloud for the large testbed domain (bed.cosmos-lab.org) is split across two locations in NYC: uptown CU CRF data center and downtown NYU data center at 32 AoA interconnected with the high-speed optical backbone.
In particular, COSMOS includes three types of radio nodes:
- large (rooftop installed "multi-sector base station" (BS))
- medium (building side or lightpole-mounted "microcellular BSs")
- small (fixed or mobile).
