Abstract

Over-the-air (OTA) validation is an important step before deploying new techniques in real world for NextG (5G, 6G and beyond) and wireless Internet of Things (IoT). However, most existing NextG and IoT testbeds are limited in scenario diversity, availability of computing and hardware resources, as well the flexibility to access and operate the resources. To alleviate these limitations, in this work we introduce UnionLabs, an AWS-based unified platform for remote access and sharing of OTA testbeds for NextG and IoT. We will demonstrate UnionLabs by i) federating six heterogeneous wireless testbeds deployed at University at Buffalo and the University of Utah, spanning ground, underwater and underground domains; ii) scheduling and conducting real-time OTA experiments over these testbeds, and iii) engaging with public repositories for user-generated code and datasets. Through UnionLabs, we aim to create a grassroots campaign to democratize access to wireless research testbeds with heterogeneous hardware resources and network environments.
