There is a tide in the affairs of men

Which, taken at the flood, leads on to fortune;

Omitted, all the voyage of their life Is bound in shallows

   and in miseries.

On such a full sea are we now afloat,

And we must take the current when it serves,

   Or lose our ventures

         W. Shakespeare, Julius Caesar IV:3

Cognitive Radio

The FCC wants to get substantially better use of spectrum, and they advocate using economic principles of competition to guide allocations. Only by using Cognitive Radio (CR) and Software Defined Radio (SDR) technologies can this vision be captured.

See Lloyd Nirenberg's presentation to the Wireless Communications Alliance on 20 SEPT 05. He shows how new research about "Spectrum Games" will enable economic concerns to guide allocations and enable unlicensed bands to increase their capacity. New wireless businesses will emerge from CR and SDR technologies combined with Spectrum Games.
