Abstract :
A real-time cognitive radio network testbed is being built. This is the first paper to capture the overall picture of this project. Project scope and philosophy, design architecture, hardware platform, and key algorithms are reported. The use of cognitive radio network for smart grid is for the first time proposed in this paper. This unique testbed is ideal for such purpose.
