Scarcity of spectrum is one of the factors limiting the increase of wireless access networks capacity.So, together with high interest in adopting new frequency bands, it is necessary that multiple networks will have to share large parts of the spectrum.Cognitive Radio (CR) principle is a promising way to open the doors for such sharing.While the research in this area is very active, there is an acknowledged issue that the design and execution of real experiments remains very labor and cost intensive.This tutorial will shortly present the existing experimentation facilities.It will show, through handson exercises, how to set up and execute simple CR experiments, which will be conducted remotely on the different testbeds during the tutorial.
