This talk presents an overview of the new COSMOS testbed being developed jointly by Rutgers, Columbia and NYU under the National Science Foundation’s recently announced Platforms for Advanced Wireless (PAWR) program.  The COSMOS testbed has a particular focus on “beyond 5G” ultra-high bandwidth and low latency communication tightly integrated with edge computing, and is thus intended to provide a suitable platform for real-world evaluation of future edge-cloud enhanced mobile networks and services.  Motivating applications such as augmented reality, cloud-assisted vehicular and smart intersection are identified in terms of typical functionality and bandwidth/latency requirements. The COSMOS open, programmable testbed architecture based on software-defined radios (SDR), cloud radio access networks (CRAN), software defined x-haul networks (SDN) and mobile edge cloud (MEC) is given.  Key technologies in COSMOS including SDR base stations, mmWave radio, optical wavelength division switching, next-generation mobile core network and distributed edge cloud will be discussed.  Plans for COSMOS deployment in uptown Manhattan along with a future roadmap for the project are given in conclusion.
