  The KU Agile Radio (KUAR) project resulted in the development of a portable software defined radio (SDR) designed to operate in the 5-6 GHz frequency range. The KUAR was capable of supporting a wide range of experiments in dynamic spectrum management

  wireless networking

  and radio network control. The flexibility of KUAR programming provided the ability to test and evaluate modulation techniques

  media access protocols

  and cognitive radio algorithms.
