SII Planning: Interdisciplinary and Cross-Layer Research Agenda for the National Wireless Spectrum Center

该奖项是频谱创新计划的规划拨款：国家无线频谱研究中心（SII中心）。 频谱研究SII中心的重点超越了5G，物联网和其他现有或即将推出的系统和技术，以制定一条轨迹，通过有效使用和共享无线电频谱，确保美国在科学和工程领域的未来无线技术，系统和应用方面的领导地位。 这个奖项是一个真正的跨学科方法的中心规划。 研究议程是全面和跨领域的，旨在解决频谱使用的所有方面，以及教育推广。该项目旨在为一个特殊的SII中心制定一个全面的计划，该中心将通过有效使用和共享无线电频谱，帮助保持和扩大美国在未来无线技术，系统和科学与工程应用方面的领导地位。为SII规划提案而组建的团队跨越了八所大学（罗格斯大学、哥伦比亚大学、纽约大学、美国大学）。亚利桑那州、德克萨斯州奥斯汀、俄勒冈州、普林斯顿和美国。Wisconsin-Madison），由知名的无线研究人员组成，他们之前在一系列专业领域对频谱做出了贡献：高频频谱，经济和政策，频谱协议，交叉分层，无线系统物理层安全，光学，无线光纤集成，无线物理层和建模，网络架构，频谱协议，测试床等。 该奖项将资助以下活动：制定引人注目的研究议程，关键主题的试点研究，与研究，政府和行业利益相关者的合作，以及实验基础设施和教育/劳动力发展计划。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。

This award is a planning grant for the Spectrum Innovation Initiative: National Center for Wireless Spectrum Research (SII-Center). The focus of a spectrum research SII-Center goes beyond 5G, IoT, and other existing or forthcoming systems and technologies to chart out a trajectory to ensure United States leadership in future wireless technologies, systems, and applications in science and engineering through the efficient use and sharing of the radio spectrum. This award is for ceenter planning with a truly interdisciplinary approach. The research agenda is comprehensive and cross-cutting, designed to address all aspects of spectrum use, as well as educational outreach. This project is aimed at the development of a comprehensive plan for an exceptional SII-Center which would help maintain and extend US leadership in future wireless technologies, systems, and applications in science and engineering through the efficient use and sharing of radio spectrum. The team that has assembled for this SII planning proposal spans eight universities (Rutgers, Columbia, NYU, U. Arizona, UT Austin, Oregon State, Princeton, and U. Wisconsin-Madison) and consists of well-established wireless researchers with prior contributions to spectrum across a range of specializations: high frequency spectrum, economics and policy, spectrum protocols, cross layering, wireless systems physical-layer security, optical, wireless-fiber integration, wireless physical layer and modeling, network architecture, spectrum protocols, testbeds, and more. This award will fund activities towards the development of a compelling research agenda, pilot studies on key topics, engagement with research, government, and industry stakeholders, and plans for experimental infrastructure and education/workforce development.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.
