Powder supports software-programmable experimentation on 5G and beyond, massive MIMO, ORAN, spectrum sharing and CBRS, RF monitoring, and anything else that can be supported on software-defined radios. Request an Account Supported By From The Lab To The Real World Powder is built to get your idea from the lab out into the real world. To get started, it has several tightly-controlled environments: a wired test bench, a controllable attenuator, and emulation. From there, you can move to a number of end-to-end software-defined over-the-air experimental environments, including a flexible indoor testbed, a city-scale living lab deployment, and true mobility on a fleet of shuttles, Powder Highlights Learn how to build your own private 5G network with a short video We now have dozens of shuttles with powder radios on them circulating through our campus Powder now has an indoor over-the-air lab in general availability It's easy to get the ORAN Reference Stack running on Powder Our paired radio workbench enables experiments in a controlled environment Powder Users Across the United States Recent Papers Using Powder (see all --)
