TV Whitespace Demo

[dmeyer@cs.wisc.edu]

Brief demo description:

• This demo shows the feasibility and benefits of using mobile spectrum sensors mounted on vehicles for studying spectral characteristics in TV whitespaces (i.e., unoccupied channels in UHF and VHF bands). The setup consists of three components - the mobile client, the server, and the front-end (laptop). The mobile client is a laptop connected to a portable spectrum analyzer, both being deployed in a vehicle driving on the road. The spectrum analyzer will be continuously collecting spectral samples, feeding them to the laptop for real-time detection of whitespace spectrum. The detection results will be transfered to the server using the WiRover system on the vehicle. The server will visualize this data, and expose a web interface for the front-end laptop to display.

List of equipment that will need AC connections:

• Two AC connections: a) A laptop, b) A monitor.

Number of wired network connections:

• 1 connection between the front-end laptop and the server for updating the spectral map in real-time.

Number of wireless network connections:

• 1 wireless network connection

Number of static addresses needed:

• None.

Monitor (y/n, specify VGA or DVI):

• 1 monitor - VGA.

Number of posters:

• 1 poster.

Description of any special requests:

• None.
