Abstract
The w-iLab.t is a large-scale generic wireless experimentation facility. Over 260 wireless nodes are installed at two different locations. Every single wireless node is equipped with multiple wireless technologies, namely IEEE 802.15.4, Wi-Fi a/b/g(/n), and on some devices also Bluetooth. Additionally, w-iLab.t provides access to software defined radio platforms and also uses them to characterize the wireless environment during an experiment. The w-iLab.t flexibility and its tools enable experimenters to design and schedule a wide range of wireless experiments, and to collect and process results in a user-friendly way.
