Cognitive Software Defined Radio (CogS) Laboratory

Abstract

Funding is requested to establish a research and teaching laboratory for cognitive softwaredefined radios in support of RF sensing and exploitation The research laboratory will provide advanced tools, instruments and software to faculty, Ph.D.students and researchers specializing in RF systems. The objective is to extend cognitive researchfrom the realm of theory to hardware-in-the-loop and outdoor experimentation. As such, thelaboratory will require high-quality Software Defined Radios (SDR) acting as agile transceivers,supported by high-performance computing systems and software for realistic RF environmentemulations, and high-speed data storage and networking for post-collection analysis. The researchobjective is to use modern cognition and learning strategies to assess, anticipate challenges tospectrum operations autonomously and incorporate with advanced SDR technology for real-worldimplementations.
