Cognitive Radio Seen as Essential Enabler of Key Wireless Trends in Commercial, Public Safety and Military Markets

DENVER, September 25, 2007 - With the rapid emergence of cognitive radio (CR), this hot-button technology promises to achieve the vision of multimedia wireless services anywhere, anytime and with any device, according to a new study commissioned by the Software Defined Radio (SDR) Forum (www.sdrforum.org), a nonprofit international industry association for reconfigurable wireless technology. A cognitive radio intelligently determines which communication channels are in use and automatically switches to an unoccupied channel.

Prepared by noted technology consultant Jim Gunn, a specialist in digital wireless and multimedia communications, the 62-page study - "The Cognitive Radio Market" - provides a comprehensive look at the technology that many industry stakeholders identify as an essential enabling technology to achieve future goals in key wireless industry market segments, including the commercial, public safety and military sectors.
