Technologies EURECOM’s 5G Experimentation Infrastructure is based on the OpenAirInterface and Mosaic5G software packages along with commercially-available RF and computing equipment. The test site can be used to experiment with the following 3GPP technologies 3GPP 5G NR (including RU,DU and CU node functions) 3GPP 4G LTE-A (including RU,DU-LTE and CU-LTE node functions) 3GPP 4G LTE-M 3GPP 4G NB-IoT 3GPP 4G LTE-Sidelink (ProSe / V2X) 3GPP Rel 15 EPC (MME,HSS,S+PGw) 3GPP Rel 15 5GCore (end 2019) OAI Towards 5G
