It is our great pleasure to welcome you to Chicago for the SRIF 2014 Workshop. The goal of SRIF is to bring together practitioners and researchers of software defined radio in to share their experiences, insights and latest developments. Through this exchange the workshop aims to facilitate collaborations between academia and industry. The workshop is a venue for industrial participants to share their experiences and best practices for commercial deployments of SDR systems and for researchers to share their latest results in novel uses of SDR in emerging wireless systems.
This year's program includes submissions from industry and academia, with papers and demos of new hardware, improvements to existing SDR platforms and new SDR applications at the waveform and protocol layers.
After a thorough review process, the technical program committee has selected 10 papers and 3 demos for presentation at the workshop. These submissions represent authors from 7 countries on 3 continents (Hong Kong, Italy, Finland, Germany, Sweden, Switzerland and USA). We are especially pleased to have Prof. Petri Mähönen from RWTH Aachen University presenting the invited keynote talk.

Improving transport design for WARP SDR deployments
Software-Defined radios (SDRs) are a popular platform for developing and implementing wireless protocols. Their basic architecture consists of radio front-ends hosted on an FGPA board, and a back-end processing host for running bulk of the signal ...
SDR-based passive indoor localization system for GSM
This study deals with indoor positioning using GSM radio, which has the distinct advantage of wide coverage over other wireless technologies. In particular, we focus on passive localization systems that are able to achieve high localization accuracy ...
A real-time and protocol-aware reactive jamming framework built on software-defined radios
This paper develops a software-defined radio (SDR) framework for real-time reactive adversarial jamming in wireless networks. The system consists of detection and RF response infrastructure, implemented in the FPGA of a USRP N210 and designed to ...
Demo: CogMAC+ - a decentralized multichannel MAC protocol for cognitive wireless networks
Cognitive MAC schemes are emerging as a prospective solution to efficiently utilize the wireless medium. In order to enable opportunistic access to unused licensed band, a node has to monitor the frequency spectrum and carry out its transmission without ...
Demo: 802.11 a/g PHY implementation in ziria, domain-specific language for wireless programming
Software-defined radio (SDR) brings the flexibility of software to the domain of wireless protocol design, promising an ideal platform both for research and innovation and the rapid deployment of new protocols on existing hardware. However, existing SDR ...
Demo: WARP drive - accelerating wireless multi-hop cross-layer experimentation on SDRs
Rapid prototyping of cross-layer multi-hop schemes in wireless networks often poses a hard challenge. While SDRs allow to implement virtually any cross-layer technique, the underlying programming models for rapid prototyping are inherently designed for ...
Software defined radio for smart utility networks
In this paper, we describe a software defined radio (SDR) platform that can be used to implement the IEEE 802.15.4g standard for low data rate wireless smart utility networks (SUN). The SUN standard supports multiple wireless band plans, defines ...
whiteLAN: facilitate cost-efficient SDR research with cots ieee 802.11b/g devices
To build large and scalable setups, researchers usually employ mixed testbeds of regular SDR devices and cheaper, generally less flexible COTS devices. Such hybrid setups often face uncontrollable interference from other users in the ISM bands, which ...
Paper: exploring MAC parallelization on software defined radio platforms
MAC layers of today's wireless systems have evolved into complex state-machines, and are characterized by strict timeliness requirements and high computational demands. MAC protocols are generally viewed as sequential extended state-machines and ...
Implementing TD-LTE as software defined radio in general purpose processor
Cloud radio access networks use servers that are connected to Remote Radio Heads (RRH). Base station (BS) implementation with this concept is challenging. The strict real-time nature of baseband (BB) processing seems to rule out usage of General Purpose ...
Joint phase tracking and channel decoding for OFDM PNC: algorithm and experimental evaluation
This paper investigates the problem of joint phase tracking and channel decoding in OFDM based Physical-layer Network Coding (PNC) systems. OFDM signaling can obviate the need for tight time synchronization among multiple simultaneous transmissions in ...
Proof-of-concept implementation for network orchestrated relay selection mechanism
This paper describes a small-scale software radio proof-of-concept implementation developed to investigate a network orchestrated relay selection concept. The idea aims to reduce "energy-in-the-air" by replacing single long transmissions with multiple ...
MIMO-OFDM spatial multiplexing technique implementation for GNU radio
Multiple-Input Multiple-Output (MIMO) is a wireless technology allowing a significant increasing of the throughput without the extension of the bandwidth but by means of the use of multiple antennas both in transmission and reception. Currently, ...
