Software Images Available in ARA

For ARA users, we provide pre-built container images for experimentation. The container images are equipped with software tools specifically for the domain of experimentation. For instance, the containers for RAN experiments are equipped with USRP Hardware Driver (UHD) and OpenSource 5G stacks for Base Stations and User Equipment. For AraHaul and other types of AraRAN experiments, we create containers with wrapper APIs for measurement and configuration. The following tables provide the description of container images made available for ARA users.
