AERPAW helikite spectrum measurements at Lake Wheeler site in May 2022

<p>The AERPAW helikite flew up to 500 feet altitude, at increments of 10 meters, while waiting for 5 minutes in between altitude changes at the Lake Wheeler site on May 2022. The USRP B205mini continuously sweeps the spectrum up to 6 GHz while the helikite is at a fixed altitude, and power measurements at each frequency band are logged. The results are post-processed in Matlab to observe the spectrum occupancy at different bands and the effect of spectrum sensing altitude on the occupancy results.</p> <p>Similar datasets for August 2022 and August 2023 are in separate Dryad deposits. </p>
