This paper provides details of a distributed genetic algorithm (GA) based cognitive radio engine model for disaster communications and its implementation in a cognitive radio test bed using programmable radios. Future applications include tactical and covert communications. The cognitive system monitor (CSM) module presented here permits cross layer cognition and adaptation of a programmable radio by classifying the observed channel, matching channel behavior with operational goals, and passing these goals to a wireless system genetic algorithm (WSGA) adaptive controller module to evolve and optimize radio operation. The CSM module algorithm provides for parallel distributed operation and includes a learning classifier and meta-GA functions that work from a knowledge base (which may be distributed) in long term memory to synthesize matched channels and operational goals that are retained in …
