This proposal seeks funding for the Center for Wireless Internet Center for Advanced Technology (WICAT) studies conducted by the Polytechnic Institute of New York site (lead), the University of Virginia site and the site at Auburn University. Funding Requests for Fundamental Research are authorized by an NSF approved solicitation, NSF 10-507. The solicitation invites I/UCRCs to submit proposals for support of industry-defined fundamental research. This proposal is a comprehensive research project for significantly improving the capacity of wireless networks. In past decades, there has been an exponential growth of wireless devices and wireless networks. While wireless networks have brought us the convenience of mobility and new applications, they are limited by bandwidth bottlenecks. The industry and spectrum regulators are trying to allocate more bandwidth, but they still fall behind the bandwidth increases in wireless networks. Thus it is critically important to use spectrum resources more efficiently. The proposed work aims to decrease interference, including cooperative and cognitive networking. This research will not only make significant contributions to the research community, but also be very valuable for the wireless industry and spectrum regulators.This proposal aims to eliminate wireless system bottlenecks using cooperative and cognitive technologies, with the potential of enabling a broad spectrum of new wireless applications. The PIs will exploit existing programs, such as NSF REUs and the collaboration with Tuskegee and Northern New Mexico College, which focus on including students from underrepresented groups in the research. The student body at NYU-Poly is quite diverse. Most of the requested funding is going toward student support. The Pisa lo intend to incorporate this work into the new graduate course at NYU-Poly and the new ABET-accredited program at Auburn. Dissemination is clearly outlined: reports to NSF, reports to their IAB, journal and conference papers and making the resulting software packages open source.

本提案旨在为纽约理工学院网站（牵头）、弗吉尼亚大学网站和奥本大学网站进行的无线互联网中心先进技术中心（WICAT）研究提供资金。基础研究的资助申请由NSF批准的招标（NSF 10-507）授权。 征集邀请I/UCRC提交支持行业定义的基础研究的提案。 该提案是一个全面的研究项目，用于显著提高无线网络的容量。在过去几十年中，无线设备和无线网络呈指数增长。无线网络在给我们带来移动性和新应用的便利的同时，也受到了带宽瓶颈的限制。行业和频谱监管机构正试图分配更多的带宽，但他们仍然落后于无线网络带宽的增长。因此，更有效地利用频谱资源至关重要。拟议的工作旨在减少干扰，包括合作和认知网络。这项研究不仅将为研究界做出重大贡献，而且对无线行业和频谱监管机构也非常有价值。这项建议旨在利用协作和认知技术消除无线系统瓶颈，并有可能实现新的无线应用的广泛频谱。PI将利用现有的项目，如NSF雷乌斯以及与塔斯基吉和北方新墨西哥州学院的合作，这些项目的重点是将来自代表性不足群体的学生纳入研究。NYU-Poly的学生群体非常多样化。申请的大部分资金将用于学生支持。比萨洛打算将这项工作纳入新的研究生课程在纽约大学理工学院和新的ABET认证计划在奥本。传播工作已明确概述如下：向NSF提交报告，向他们的IAB提交报告，发表期刊和会议论文，并使由此产生的软件包开源。
