Abstract
This work provides an experimental implementation of the cognitive software-defined Doppler radar based on the low cost USRP platform developed by Ettus Research. The proposed solution employs spectrum sensing in order to take advantage of the white spaces of the radio spectrum. The system continuously adapts its operating frequency according to environment changes, reducing the risk of interfering with other radio systems and acquiring a higher degree of immunity against jamming. The novelty of the proposed algorithm used for dynamically allocating the system’s operating frequency lies in its ability of covering a wide frequency bandwidth despite of the reduced instantaneous bandwidth of the low cost USRP platform employed in the experimental setup. Another related advantage of the proposed algorithm is the reduced computational power required for the real-time operation of the system. All of the above mentioned assertions have been validated experimentally.
