“…The use of emulation requires that at least one piece of the system is a real component. And testbed is a scaled version of the targeted system which consists of the hardware and related software to carry out the evaluation [2]. Table 1 summarizes these three evaluation techniques.…”

“…Table 1 summarizes these three evaluation techniques. Simulation is based on high level of abstraction [2] and does not always produce realistic results [11]. Wireless networks simulation is also weak in modelling complex channels with shadowing, small scale fading and frequency selectivity [12].…”

“…However, once the license costs are handled, simulations can cheaper, faster, portable, and can explore broader choice of options. On the other hand emulation provides a performance evaluation environment that contains both real and modelled parts [2], but it lacks high degree of realism. The solution is to build wireless research infrastructure platforms in order to produce realistic results.…”

Cognitive radio (CR) technology has become one of the buzzwords within the wireless communications community over the past 12 years. Its ability to learn, decide and adapt to the external environment made CR attractive to regulators, researchers, academia, politicians and the industry. CR promises to bring a paradigm shift in spectrum management policies from command-and-control regime to dynamic and opportunistic spectrum access. Despite more than a decade of research in the CR area, there are too little CR systems ready for the market. This lack of ready CR systems may reflect an overemphasis in the CR literature on theory and simulations with less work done in experimental-basedresearch and publications. In order to fast-track the real-life deployments of CR systems, the research community is now focusing on the development of CR platforms. With different software defined radio (SDR) packages and hardware available, it is confusing to decide which one to build or use. The objective of this paper is to study the design of CR platforms making use available SDR software packages and hardware. Our conclusion is that CR research should now focus on experimental-based results using real-life CR platforms in order to realize market-ready CR systems.
