1.5) Future Equipment

Other Equipment that are not yet Part of the AERPAW General Availability

Other than the equipment that is presently generally available (see Section 1.4), AERPAW has deployed or will be deploying various other equipment at its fixed and portable nodes and in its sandbox. While some of these equipment are already being tested by the AERPAW team, they will be integrated into General Availability by the end of Phase-2 and Phase-3 as described in the AERPAW Timeline.

The existing equipment deployments and future plans as of Fall 2021 are as follows.

• Ericsson 4G/5G Network: Deployed one at LW1, testing in progress, additional deployments and general availability aimed by the end of Phase-2

• Keysight RF Sensors: Deployed one at CC2, initial testing done, additional deployments and general availability aimed by the end of Phase-2

• Facebook Terragraph Radios: Deployed one at CC8 and CC12 each, and two at CC10 and CC11 each, initial testing done, general availability aimed by the end of Phase-2

• LoRa USB Dongles: Deployed at LW1 and CC1, initial testing in progress, additional deployments and general availability aimed by the end of Phase-2

• Fortem Radar: Initial testing done in Phase-1, general availability aimed by the end of Phase-2

• Keysight Propsim Channel Emulator: Initial testing done in Phase-1, general availability aimed by the end of Phase-2

• LoRa Gateways/Sensors: To be deployed during Phase-2 followed by initial testing

• IsoBLUE Radios: To be deployed during Phase-2 followed by initial testing

• Interdigital mmWave equipment: To be deployed during Phase-2 followed by initial testing

Some representative measurements and results related to several of these equipment can be found under Section 5) Future Platform Features.
