Radio Resilience Competition

While we endeavor to make the RRC Simulator easy to get started with, we have gotten feedback that implementing custom resamplers could be easier. This is due to IQ burst tagging that is necessary to ensure synchronous operation among the various microservices that make up the Simulator. The Simulator takes care of this by default for most scenarios, and we want to offer a solution for the rest. Therefore we have decided to implement an SDR-driver-style interface for the Simulator!

Hello competitors! We’re trying something new – we’re going to run one scenario (Dutycycle) exclusively for the next few weeks. By playing the same scenario every day, our intent is to make it easier for competitors to measure their improvement day-to-day.

Competitors, we want to know what you think of this change. Come join us on Slack and let us know!

Tune in below to learn more about daily match automation and improved burst tagging!

The Radio Resilience organizers are pleased to announce the launch of daily matches! Every day, we’ll run a scenario featuring the latest images so that competitors can continuously improve their designs. Head on over to the Leaderboard to see the latest scores and yesterday’s replays!

Yesterday marked our Fall Season Final Event, and with it the end of our inaugural season. Congratulations to Team Meteor on their victory, and also all six of our competitors for their exciting achievements over the last several weeks. The Fall Final featured three rounds of competition. Each round pitted competitor radios against a radio scenario that was selected to exercise specific dimensions of radio performance. The “half” scenario showcased an RF environment where half of the spectrum was denied by a powerful interferer – competitors could either maneuver around the interference, or beef up their modulation/error correction parameters to power through it.

Scrimmage #5 presented competitors with a slightly easier variant of our first competitor-sourced interference pattern, the active jammer that was featured in Scrimmage #4. Since that proved to be such a challenging hurdle, we wanted to give competitors another shot at a variant with more relaxed backoffs and a weaker interference pattern. Congratulations to team David-Thee-Radio, whose slow and steady approach enabled them to edge out the competition by scoring points deep into the match! [Read More]

Scrimmage #4 presented competitors with our very first competitor-sourced interference pattern. Submitted by Team Tea and Tech Time, this active jammer followed the radio signals around the environment, posing a unique challenge. Congratulations to Team Meteor and Team TiFi for our first ever tie with a score of 149! Watch the recap of the highlights below, and join us next week at 2pm Pacific on December 20 for Scrimmage #5!
