The SDR Forum announced the qualifying teams in its first Smart Radio Challenge, a worldwide competition in which student engineering teams design, develop, and test a software-defined radio (SDR) or a cognitive radio. The finalists for Smart Radio Challenge '07 comprise two teams from Virginia Tech and one each from Clemson, Pennsylvania State, University of Utah, France's Ecole Superieur d'Electricite (Supelec), Universiti Putri Malaysia, and Sweden's Royal Institute of Technology. The qualifying teams will now have 10 months to complete and submit their projects. After the development phase, the SDR Forum will award several prizes, and teams already qualified may compete in successive years for the annual prizes, which include monetary grants to the student teams, as well as their university departments.
