Software-Defined Wireless Networking (SDWN) is an emerging approach based on decoupling radio control functions from the radio data plane through programmatic interfaces. Despite diverse ongoing efforts to realize the vision of SDWN, many questions remain open from multiple perspectives such as means to rapid prototype and experiment candidate...

We have provided critical evaluations of new potential testbeds for the evaluation of SDN-based WMNs. We evaluated the R2Lab wireless testbed platform at INRIA Sophia-Antipolis, France. This testbed has 37 customisable wireless devices in an anechoic chamber for reproducible research in wireless WiFi and 4G/5G networks. Our work presents the...

We describe a demonstration run on R2lab, an open wireless testbed located in an anechoic chamber at Inria Sophia Antipolis. The demonstration consists in easily deploying a Wi-Fi mesh network. The nodes provisioning, configuration and the scenario orchestration and control are automatically done using the nepi-ng experiment orchestration tool....
