Abstract
The most promising application of field programmable gate arrays (FPGA) is reconfigurable computing, which gives basis for prototyping a swarm intelligence and the behavior of smart objects. With different configurations, the functionality of an FPGA can change different modular units of smart objects. With a swarm of these FPGA-based objects, it is possible to take advantage of a new kind of data processing method: cognitive computing. The use of cognitive radio makes this technology more dependable. These smart objects have to be developed to a level where they communicate safely before any bigger evolution can happen. So, how do we reconfigure these small smart objects safely over a wireless network? This paper introduces an implement prototype which enables the safer reconfiguration of hardware logic over a wireless radio link by using frequency hopping and by searching for available noiseless channels.
