项目摘要

The Spectrum Sharing Radio Challenge (Spectrum-ShaRC) is an international student challenge aimed at stimulating and encouraging students to engage in research and innovation in the field of cognitive radio and spectrum sharing. The challenge runs from October through June 2016. This project will provide travel grants to support student travel for the top eight US-based Spectrum-ShaRC teams to participate in the final round of the challenge to be held at Blacksburg, Virgnia. Radios developed by the student teams are scored and ranked based on criteria that include the ability of the student-developed radios to transfer data quickly and accurately, adapt to interference from other radios, and avoid interfering with other radios in a dynamic radio environments. Participants will also have the opportunity to attend the symposium and summer school at a reduced registration rate. The symposium offers keynote speeches, technical presentations and tutorials on a variety of topics including mathematical methods and software for use in wireless research and research-to-technology transfer from which the students will benefit. The challenge encourages students to develop innovative solutions that will enable safer and more reliable spectrum sharing. The developed tools for running the challenge as well as the results produced by the participants will be valuable for research and education. Results will be published in the Spectrum-ShaRC challenge report and it is expected that portions of the challenge, tools and outcomes will be published in scholarly articles and used in tutorials and university lectures.

频谱共享无线电挑战赛（Spectrum-ShaRC）是一项国际学生挑战赛，旨在激励和鼓励学生参与认知无线电和频谱共享领域的研究和创新。该挑战赛从 10 月持续到 2016 年 6 月。该项目将为美国 Spectrum-ShaRC 排名前八的团队提供旅费资助，以支持学生参加在弗吉尼亚州布莱克斯堡举行的最后一轮挑战赛。对学生团队开发的无线电进行评分和排名的标准包括学生开发的无线电快速准确地传输数据的能力、适应其他无线电的干扰以及在动态无线电环境中避免干扰其他无线电的能力。参与者还将有机会以较低的注册费率参加研讨会和暑期学校。研讨会提供主题演讲、技术演示和教程，主题涉及各种主题，包括用于无线研究和研究到技术转移的数学方法和软件，学生将从中受益。该挑战鼓励学生开发创新解决方案，以实现更安全、更可靠的频谱共享。用于举办挑战赛的开发工具以及参与者产生的结果对于研究和教育都很有价值。结果将在 Spectrum-ShaRC 挑战报告中发布，预计挑战的部分内容、工具和结果将在学术文章中发布，并在教程和大学讲座中使用。
