The Wireless @ VT research group has embarked on a effort to develop a unique testbed named the Virginia Tech Cognitive Radio Network (VT-CORNET), for the development, testing, and evaluation of cognitive engine techniques and cognitive radio network applications. An open cognitive radio network testbed provides the infrastructure for researchers at Virginia Tech and partner institutions to evaluate independently developed cognitive radio engines, sensing techniques, applications, protocols, performance metrics, and algorithms in a real world wireless environment, in contrast to a computer simulation or single node-to-single node environment.
