The National Science Foundation awarded Virginia Polytechnic Institute and State University a $450,000 Project Grant under the Engineering program (CFDA 47.041) to develop interference canceling technologies for improved coexistence between passive and active radio systems from September 15, 2021 through August 31, 2024. The grant funds research at Virginia Tech to design small interference mitigation techniques that allow unlicensed wireless devices like Wi-Fi routers and Bluetooth accessories to operate more seamlessly with passive radio services in shared spectrum bands. The Engineering program supports research and education projects that advance innovation in various engineering disciplines, including technologies that enhance spectrum sharing and efficiency to support continued growth in wireless connectivity while avoiding harmful interference to critical infrastructure and public services that rely on radio frequencies.
