摘 要:This document describes the design, construction, and testing of a proof-of-concept hardware and software package that combines cognitive radio and autonomous vehicles in a single system whose behavior captures the essential features of both. The result is a low-cost (less than $200) cognitive radio and cognitive engine package suitable for installation in the small experimental UAVs flown by USAFRL. Experiments with the package controlling a small wheeled vehicle demonstrate its ability to explore and learn a multidimensional environment that combines changing RF, location, and mission data and to optimize its mission performance intelligently.
