NeTS-ProWiN: Collaborative Research - Dynamic Spectrum MAC with Multiparty Support in Adhoc NetworksAward 0435306Saswati Sarkar, University of PennsylvaniaAbstractMajor advances in dynamic spectrum management and the inevitable deregulation of large portions of the radio spectrum will revolutionize future wireless networks, services, and applications. This will lead to an era of spectrum efficient cognitive radios that will enable the deployment of radically different radio architectures, algorithms, and protocols over the next decade. This project is studying the design of a new programmable media access control (MAC) layer for this new environment. The MAC must regulate how future programmable radio devices can efficiently interact with each other using spectrum-aware communication algorithms. In our study, we model the MAC design as decision problems using tools from decision sciences such as stochastic control, optimization, graph theory and estimation theory. We validate the design of the MAC through an experimental implementation consisting of programmable radios. The expected results from the research include the design of a programmable MAC system that can enable a class of new applications, including enhanced reliability communications and spectrum-efficient group communications. The resulting implementation of the proposed programmable MAC platform and its software will enable the development of new intelligent spectrum-aware algorithms and applications. The results of the research will provide a set of foundation algorithms that can be used by the community developing new spectrum-aware radio systems. The research facilitates several life-critical activities e.g., search and rescue missions and disaster relief operations. The research will also enrich the education curriculum of the participating institutions and foster the participation of under-represented groups in engineering.

NetTS-ProWiN：协作研究-Adhoc网络中具有多方支持的动态频谱MAC Award 0435306宾夕法尼亚大学Saswati Sarkar摘要动态频谱管理的主要进展和不可避免的大部分无线电频谱的放松管制将彻底改变未来的无线网络、服务和应用。 这将导致一个频谱高效的认知无线电时代，这将使未来十年部署完全不同的无线电架构，算法和协议成为可能。 本项目正在研究设计一种新的可编程媒体访问控制（MAC）层，为这一新的环境。 MAC必须规范未来的可编程无线电设备如何使用频谱感知通信算法有效地相互交互。 在我们的研究中，我们使用决策科学的工具，如随机控制，优化，图论和估计理论的决策问题模型的MAC设计。 我们通过可编程无线电的实验实现，验证了MAC的设计。 该研究的预期成果包括设计一种可编程MAC系统，该系统可以实现一类新的应用，包括增强的可靠性通信和频谱高效的组通信。 所提出的可编程MAC平台及其软件的实现将使新的智能频谱感知算法和应用的开发成为可能。 研究结果将提供一套基础算法，可供社区开发新的频谱感知无线电系统使用。 这项研究促进了几项对生命至关重要的活动，例如，搜救任务和救灾行动。 这项研究也将丰富参与机构的教育课程，并促进代表性不足的群体参与工程学。
