                                NEWSDR 2016
+
The New England Workshop on Software Defined Radio (NEWSDR) has been running for 8 years. The goal of these workshops is to provide a forum through which individuals working on SDR-related projects in the greater Boston area can get together in order to collaborate and introduce SDR concepts to those interested in furthering their knowledge of SDR capabilities and available resources. The event attracts attendees from industry, academia, and government. In 2017, attendance was approximately 110 people. Registration is free.
