Open-source software platform for cognitive radio waveforms

CogWave is a free and open-source software platform aiming at developing cognitive radio waveforms. The CogWave application allows the exchange of video, audio and text between two USRPs through a graphical user interface (GUI) developed in Qt4/Gstreamer and cognitive radio waveforms developed in IT++. The USRP hardware driver (UHD) C++ application programming interface (API) allows to receive and transmit IQ samples. Combining CogWave with USRP gives a rapid prototyping platform for physical layer design and algorithm validation through a real-time video, audio and text transmission.
