Cloud Radio Access Network (C-RAN) is emerging as a transformative paradigmatic architecture for the next generation of wireless cellular networks. In this demo, a programmable C-RAN testbed is implemented where the Base Band Unit (BBU) is virtualized using the OpenAirInterface (OAI) software platform, and the eNodeB and User Equipment (UEs) are implemented using Software-Defined Radio (SDR) USRP boards. Based on our testbed architecture, we further develop a novel hierarchical computation mechanism to improve the performance of mobile Augmented Reality (AR) applications.
