2020 Zenodo  
This document presents the 5GENESIS portable demonstrator, i.e., a portable platform that is used in the 5GENESIS project for participating in exhibitions/demo events and, also, to provide vertical sectors with a full 5G reference testbed for on-site testing. The main content of the document refers to the description of the integration activities conducted during the period up to M18 of the project. As it is explained in the document, the development of the 5GENESIS portable demonstrator

Multiple building blocks have been integrated in a modular way to enhance the variety of test cases and experiments that the 5GENESIS portable demonstrator can support. In that sense, both open source software solutions (such as the Open Air Interface (OAI), provided by EURECOM, over Ettus USRPs) and commercial off-the-shelf products (such as the Amarisoft products) have been adopted. All the activities reported in this document abide by the need to meet a major objective of the project, i.e., to realize the 5GENESIS reference architecture (released from WP2 of the project). In this context, the reader can find infrastructure level integrations as well as installations and configurations of the 5GENESIS facility layer, i.e., the set of tools (released from WP5 of the project) that are being developed to enable automated experimentation, slice management, and performance monitoring. From the infrastructure perspective, research-oriented set ups for 4G and 5G technologies have been integrated, while a 5G NSA solution is also available for performance testing from verticals.
