This project aims to deploy a Software-Defined Radio (SDR) based 5G NSA/SA framework to support advanced Internet of Things (IoT) applications. The student team will utilize open-source SRSRAN software stack to design and build a 5G base station capable of supporting multiple User Equipment (UE). Key project components include configuring the 5G network environment and conducting comprehensive performance testing (throughput, latency, and reliability). This research is crucial for advancing wireless communication technology, as reliable high-speed connectivity is fundamental to enabling next-generation IoT systems. The project is supervised by Dr. Han and Mr. Mondal from the school of computing at the University of Connecticut
