This project will develop a series of lab exercises comprising a senior-level undergraduate or introductory graduate lab course on fundamental design issues of wireless networks and technologies. Over the course of this lab sequence, students will practice designing, implementing and running wireless experiments using the GENI wireless testbed infrastructure. These labs enable student to learn wireless networks protocols and technologies by working with real systems and evaluating wireless schemes in real conditions, instead of relying on the 'protected' environment of software simulations.Through building protocols on a real platform, students will understand the challenges in the design of wireless systems and the approaches and techniques that are used today, and will become familiar with open research issues in the wireless field. They will learn how to resolve realistic issues and how to design algorithms that work in practical situations.The outcome of the project will be a set of materials (including a lab manual, disk images, experiment scripts, software, and slides) that can be used by academic institutions throughout the US, together with the integrated GENI wireless facilities, to supplement traditional courses on wireless networks with a hands-on lab component. All data generated as part of the proposed effort will be electronically disseminated using the portal of the WiTEST Lab in NYU-Poly and on the GENI.net website. Developed software and results of the lab development will be made available in the open-source format and will be free for academic use. Educational materials will be announced on the web site and will be shared with academic colleagues upon request.

该项目将开发一系列实验室练习，包括有关无线网络和技术基本设计问题的高级本科或入门研究生实验室课程。在这个实验室序列的过程中，学生将使用Geni无线测试床基础架构练习设计，实施和运行无线实验。这些实验室使学生能够通过使用真实系统合作并在实际条件下评估无线方案来学习无线网络协议和技术，而不是依靠软件模拟的“受保护的”环境。在真实平台上构建协议，学生将了解无线系统的设计以及当今使用无需无线研究的无线系统和方法和技术的挑战。他们将学习如何解决现实的问题以及如何设计在实际情况下工作的算法。项目的结果将是一组材料（包括实验室手册，磁盘图像，实验脚本，软件和幻灯片），可以由整个美国的学术机构与整个无线设施一起使用，以补充无线网络，并补充了无线网络，这些材料可以使用。 作为拟议工作的一部分生成的所有数据将使用NYU-POLY和GENI.NET网站上的Witest Lab的门户进行电子传播。开发的软件和实验室开发的结果将以开源形式提供，并且将免费用于学术用途。教育材料将在网站上宣布，并应要求与学术同事共享。
