“…However, present wireless communication transceivers based on software defined radio technology are used primarily in high-end applications due to their relative high cost and power consumption. Examples are base station equipment for cellular mobile communications [28,33,37] and wireless military communcation equipment such as the American Joint Tactical Radio System (JTRS) conducted by the Department of Defense [30,35] and the European counterpart European Secure SOftware Radio programme (ESSOR) conducted by the European Defense Agency [7]. Besides these actual product implementations, a number of both commercial and opensource generic platforms exist supporting educational purposes, proof-of-concept studies and software architecture validation.…”

The application of wireless personal area network (WPAN) and simple pointto-point wireless communication devices has increased drastically both in private household and in our workspaces in general over the last decade. Combined with the fact that the total number of wireless devices and associated standards present in the wireless environment is experiencing an extreme growth, the frequency spectrum scarcity is exposed as a severe challenge. Setting up efficient and reliable wireless WPAN links can be challenging even today. This is especially true because of the intensive use of the license-free frequency bands, where the level of interference can be extremely high. Combined with the challenges associated with multi-path propagation and attenuation, setting up and maintaining an acceptable level of perceived QoS is a challenging job even for trained professionals. This paper discusses the challenges associated with the implementation of highly reliable low-power WPAN networks for the future and the adaption of Cognitive Radio technology as a potential solution. A brief status on the maturity of CR technology will be presented as an integral part of this discussion.
