The Pi-Radio FR3 SDR is Operational

NYU spin-off Pi-Radio has been collaborating with researchers at NYU WIRELESS on a National Telecommunications and Information Administration NOFO-1-funded research project. In this project, Pi-Radio has designed and built a wideband, low-cost, portable FR3 SDR kit to enable experiments in the upper mid-band. The production-ready SDR has been demonstrated as of 7/18/2024!

Researchers involved from Pi-Radio are Mike Zappe and Aditya Dhananjay. The project also included Sundeep Rangan and Marco Mezzavilla from NYU WIRELESS (Marco is now with Politecnico di Milano). This effort was supported by the NTIA’s Public Wireless Supply Chain Innovation Fund and the NYU WIRELESS Industrial Affiliates.

We will report more soon and will now use the prototype for valuable experiments in channel sounding, near-field measurements, and spectrum sensing.
