1
A prototype for a city-scale wireless infrastructure for experimentation WiNEST Suman Banerjee UW-Madison suman@cs.wisc.edu
2
An outdoor, city-wide wireless infrastructure Vehicular users Cellular base stations City-wide Measurements Real users
3
Goals Serve some needs with a real group of users Mobile experimentation at scale – Focus on density within urban + rural areas
4
More than CS research Research Education
5
More than just academic research Public safety & services Transportation
6
Want the best of multiple worlds ORBIT Density PlanetLab Scale Users
7
10G fiber backhaul Truly city-wide 15 miles 8 miles Planned Base stations Existing Base station Data center NAP

Multi-technology WiMAX -> LTE TV Whitespaces
9
Deployment started GPS ODUs Sector Antennas NE NW SW
10
5nines access network Other sites Internet WiMAX Base station Compute resource WiFi AP Compute resource UW enterprise network CloudLab data center and NAP User devices Vehicular clients Central ASN and Radius service Network plan
11
Potential mobile users Controlled access to UW and to targeted users across the city Targeted apps and services
12
IoT devices Non-expt chute Experimental chutes WiNEST backhaul User devices ParaDrop WiFi router ParaDrop workshop at the US Ignite June 2014 conference Harness WiFi users Paradrop
13
Vehicular uses: WiRover Provide connectivity to Metro transit buses, police and ambulances Buses: > 4 years in operation for Internet connectivity Madison Metro Transit (city transit) Van Galder Bus (long distance) Ambulances: similar application with Milwaukee EMS (started in July 2012)
14
WiRover demo in July 2013
15
UAVs Video from drone transcoded by an onboard Raspberry Pi Transcoded video triaged using GENI resources and delivered to demo site in Davis, CA (GEC21)
16
Possible model for management A consortium of partners led by UW-Madison Partners to include: – UW-Madison – City of Madison – Madison Metro Transit – MGE – Private organizations (e.g., 5Nines) Full-time personnel in consortium to manage the infrastructure Madison Ignite
