The Centre for Telecommunications Value-Chain Research (CTVR) and the Center for Wireless Telecommunications (CWT) are undertaking a joint collaborative research project investigating the potential of different software-defined radio (SDR) and cognitive radio (CR) systems that can interoperate and co-exist in common frequency bands.This paper presents some key results from this experience so far, including an over-the-air interoperability analysis of two different SDR architectures in the same frequency band.An initial analysis of actual co-existence experiences involving primary users and secondary opportunistic spectrum users in a common frequency band is also presented.
