VESNA based platform for spectrum sensing in ISM bands

چکیده
The radio spectrum used by wireless communication systems is becoming increasingly crowded. One approach to overcome this problem is to perform real-time dynamic spectrum assignment. To this end, it is necessary to collect information about the radio spectrum, also called spectrum sensing. In this paper a framework is presented which can be used for collecting information about radio spectrum usage. This framework is based on the lowcost and versatile VESNA sensor platform. A spectrum sensing experiment has been performed in the 2.4 GHz to demonstrate the capabilities of the framework.
