Simulations are an effective and easilydeployed method, but they do not have as direct connection to the real world as real systems.However most real communication systems are very complex, and it is often difficult to utilizethem in a class. Some laboratory experiments have been based on the USRP because they can beused to build communication systems that run in real-time without the need for building lowlevel hardware and software1,2.The USRP is an open source hardware platform provided by Ettus Research3.
