Researchers in mobile technologies and services are currently requesting testbeds to validate their proposals in a realistic large-scale and controlled environment. Such demands are some times satisfied with private ad-hoc deployments in a given area of coverage. However, given national regulations related to the use of the spectrum and the cost of deployments, these solutions are not feasible for most researchers. In this paper, we introduce the architecture of the research infrastructure developed in the EuWireless project. EuWireless’ objective is to provide private networks that can be dynamically created as slices with different levels of configuration and control, as a cost-effective way to access large-scale testbeds with a licensed spectrum even in different countries. The paper focuses on the architecture of the Point of Presence, the key element in the EuWireless project, and how it will work in practice. We also present a proof of concept implementation that satisfies some of the design objectives and demonstrates the feasibility of the proposal.

用于创建切片以在无线网络上进行实验的架构

移动技术和服务的研究人员目前正在请求测试平台，以在现实的大规模受控环境中验证他们的建议。有时，在给定的覆盖区域内的私人特别部署可以满足这种需求。然而，考虑到与频谱使用和部署成本相关的国家法规，这些解决方案对大多数研究人员来说并不可行。在本文中，我们介绍了在 EuWireless 项目中开发的研究基础设施的架构。EuWireless 的目标是提供可以动态创建为具有不同配置和控制级别的切片的专用网络，以经济高效的方式访问具有许可频谱的大规模测试平台，即使在不同国家也是如此。该论文重点介绍了存在点的架构，EuWireless 项目中的关键要素，以及它将如何在实践中发挥作用。我们还提供了一个满足一些设计目标的概念实施证明，并证明了该提案的可行性。
