It will add a “GENI WiMax Base Station Kit”, provided by an associated proposal, to the testbed to complement an existing Cisco/Navini WiMax base station. It will add a mobility services engine to the testbed, and enhance the user nodes, to allow the testbed to support a wide range of wireless experiments. It will provide a unique trial mechanism for opt-in users in the broader Madison area. === Current Capabilities === Visit [http://cs.wisc.edu/wings/projects/geni/] for more information === Milestones === [[MilestoneDate(WIMXUWI: S2.a Initial integration of static and mobile nodes in MadBed testbed with ORBIT)]][[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(WIMXUWI: S2.b Implementation and deployment of user trial nodes enhanced with Mobile Access Router (MAR))]][[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(WIMXUWI: S3.a Demonstration at GEC9 and Experimenter Outreach)]] [[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(WIMXUWI: S3.b Documentation and Code Release)]] [[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(WIMXUWI: S3.c Demonstration at GEC10 and Experimenter Outreach)]] [[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(WIMXUWI: S3.d Documentation and Code Release)]] [[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(WIMXUWI: S3.e Demonstration at GEC11 and Experimenter Outreach)]] [[BR]] [[MilestoneDate(WIMXUWI: S3.f Documentation and code release)]] [[BR]] === Campus Installation Checklist === University of Wisconsin [[BR]] Contact(s): [[BR]] PI: Suman Banerjee suman@cs.wisc.edu [[BR]] || Step || Description || Planned || Started || Completed || Comment || || 1 || Identify Outdoor Site on Campus || - || - || Completed || Have three good sites: one for Cisco, one for this kit, and would like to get a 2nd kit for third site. || || 2 || Obtain FCC License || - || -|| Completed || Have license owned by Educational Communications Board, using it with Cisco base station.
