NeTS - ProWiN: A Programmable Wireless Platform For Spectral, Temporal and Spatial Spectrum ManagementAward 0435452Dirk Grunwald, University of Colorado at BoulderThis project is producing a robust, affordable and highly mutable platform for experimenting with each of the core technologies that can improve spectral efficiency. The effort combines mature, off-the-shelf RF transmission components; an open-source software radio development methodology based on experience with commercial software radio architectures; a novel, low-cost commercial phase array antenna system; novel waveforms designed for ease of experimentation; and an integrated simulation and deployment system based on widely-used open source software. Although individual components of the system can be customized by individual research groups, the resulting system is planned to operate in the 2.4GHz ISM-band spectrum. The project is also establishing a small testbed for development and testing, although the focus is on developing a kit to be replicated at different institutions. The use of commercially available RF components and development environments reduces the cost of the deployed systems, and insures that other researchers can easily acquire the equipment needed to develop their own testbeds. This research is developing a platform for experimentation in many different aspects of programmable wireless networks, allowing other researchers to focus on software, algorithms and policies for such systems. The project is also developing novel media access protocols and RF predistortion methods appropriate for exploiting phased-array antennas. These efforts will improve the utility of the system to others who wish to exploit the phased-array antenna.

NetS - ProWiN：用于频谱、时间和空间频谱管理的可编程无线平台奖 0435452Dirk Grunwald，科罗拉多大学博尔德分校该项目正在生产一个强大、经济且高度可变的平台，用于试验可提高频谱效率的每项核心技术。 这项工作结合了成熟的、现成的射频传输组件；基于商业软件无线电架构经验的开源软件无线电开发方法；新颖、低成本的商用相控阵天线系统；为便于实验而设计的新颖波形；以及基于广泛使用的开源软件的集成仿真和部署系统。 尽管系统的各个组件可以由各个研究小组定制，但最终的系统计划在 2.4GHz ISM 频段频谱中运行。 该项目还建立了一个用于开发和测试的小型测试平台，尽管重点是开发一个可在不同机构复制的工具包。 使用商用射频组件和开发环境可以降低部署系统的成本，并确保其他研究人员可以轻松获得开发自己的测试台所需的设备。这项研究正在开发一个用于可编程无线网络许多不同方面的实验平台，使其他研究人员能够专注于此类系统的软件、算法和策略。 该项目还正在开发适合利用相控阵天线的新型媒体访问协议和射频预失真方法。 这些努力将提高该系统对其他希望利用相控阵天线的人的实用性。
