In addition to the open source SDR software listed above, AERPAW will also support experiments with other licensed software that work with SDRs and other RF equipment. Examples to such software include Matlab, Keysight software suite, Facebook Terragraph software, Ericsson 4G/5G software, among others. Some example experiments with these software are provided under our "Phase-1 Non-GA Experiments" page. AERPAW team will work on making these software available to its users as part of its Phase-2 and Phase-3 general availability.
