Abstract

In the last chapter of this book, we first summarize its major conclusions. We conclude on the introduced design and operation approaches towards Smart(er) and Cognitive Software Defined Radios, and showed its application in particular stringent cases.

Consequently and finally, we end this chapter and book with some closing remarks. Many open challenges still remain to realize the Anything, anytime, anywhere aspiration, which definitely is a moving target. Adequate technological innovation is needed to keep the pace with increasing capacity requirements. Moreover, regulations, economical and even social conditions have to be considered in order to ultimately serve the users’ best.
