Abstract :
This paper proposes a cognitive radio (CR) indoor distribution system of HDTV contents in the TV white spaces, with immediate implementations as home entertainment system. A proof-of-concept digital terrestrial television (DTT) compliant prototype has been implemented on a test-bed based on commercial DTT receivers in combination with software defined radio (SDR) hardware devices. Extended measurements performed in real indoor environments assessed the feasibility of the proposed system with respect to the protection of the existing broadcasting TV services.
