| 6 | | At the [http://www.cecs.uci.edu/pro_eltawil.htm Wireless Systems and Circuits Laboratory] (WSCL) at the [http://uci.edu/ University of California, Irvine], we are utilizing the [// Rice University Wireless Open-Access Research Platform] (WARP) to demonstrate a prototype that enables public safety communication via a software defined (SDR), multi-antenna radio system. SDR addresses all three issues of agility, adaptability, and interoperability by optimally changing the operational parameters of the radio (frequency bands, throughput, etc.) to best match the communication scenario requirements, while multi-antenna techniques allow for spectrally efficient, broadband and adaptive communications. The goal is to create a system that is capable of sensing the environment and transparently "morphing" to support a multitude of modalities on a single platform by intelligently adapting to changing requirements such as user specifications and environment variations, while enabling robust and reliable communication of time-critical information. |
