This Project Grant award from the National Science Foundation Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences provides $173,167 to Virginia Polytechnic Institute & State University for research titled "COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: SWIFT: CONTEXT-AWARE SPECTRUM COEXISTENCE DESIGN AND IMPLEMENTATION IN SATELLITE BANDS (ASCENT)." The award falls under the Mathematical and Physical Sciences program (CFDA 47.049), which supports advancing scientific knowledge and understanding in these fields.
Specifically, the research aims to develop a holistic, multi-disciplinary approach to context-aware dynamic spectrum sharing in satellite bands to enable more effective spectrum utilization. Key deliverables include context-aware spectrum sharing and interference analysis tools; an implementation of a prioritization approach for dynamic spectrum sharing; an interference-resilient physical layer design; and simulation and experimental demonstrations in the 12 GHz band at Virginia Tech's fixed satellite service facility. The research seeks to address complex spectrum coexistence for broadband wireless and legacy applications like satellite communications, weather forecasting, and radio astronomy. The two-year project period runs from October 1, 2022 to September 30, 2024.
