The purpose of this project was the development of a prototype white space network operating on the TV band channels freed up during the transition to digital cable broadcasts. This prototype network consists of two computers and two software defined radios. The network was developed with the use of Gnu radio in a linux environment and utilizes Orthogonal Frequency Domain Multiplexing to transmit data over a wide band. Relatively high data rates were achieved with this network and the prototype was proven on several data rates and channels.
