Spectrum Sensing and Awareness for Cognitive and Intelligent Radios: Algorithm Implementation, Integration and Testing

This project encompasses the development of a suite of algorithms for spectrum sensing and awareness, and integration and testing in the partner company’s radio systems. The algorithms concern joint signal detection, modulation classification, and parameter estimation. In this project, the theoretical findings and experimental studies will complement each other, with the target outcome of adding further functionalities to the existing radio platform products developed by the partner company. These will find applications in cognitive radio systems, signal intelligence, and spectrum monitoring and surveillance.
