Highlights:
- ARA completed initial alignment testing with its free space optical link, passing the first beacon bits across a distance of about 6 miles in Ames, Iowa.
- POWDER and COSMOS were two of four labs in the US to host activities in the O-RAN Global PlugFest Spring 2023.
- POWDER finished a “test deployment” of one of its new upgraded outdoor nodes. The new configuration includes two types of SDRs: one N310 with custom RF frontend for research use, and one B210 for continuous compliance monitoring.
- The 3rd series of Colosseum Young Gladiators summer school was held at Northeastern University in June with hands-on tutorials for creating and sounding custom RF scenarios on Colosseum. Course materials are available online.
