Software Development

SDRs can provide significant benefits as backend gateways or base stations for sensor networks, which do not face the stringent resource constraints of in-network nodes. We extend GNU Radio and use the Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) to interoperate with the Chipcon CC1000 and CC2420 (802.15.4) radios found on the popular Mica2, MicaZ, and Telos B motes. The wideband nature of the USRP makes it feasible for a single SDR base station to simultaneously communicate on multiple independent channels, and provide network bridging across incompatible radio standards.
