 \nSoftware-defined radios (SDRs) have transformed how we teach\, learn\, a
 nd practice modern wireless communications by providing a flexible\, hands
 -on platform that bridges theory with real-world implementation. This talk
  presents a curated set of ten SDR-based experiments that have proven espe
 cially effective in engaging students and supporting practicing engineers.
  The focus will be on practical outcomes—how these experiments make abst
 ract concepts tangible\, accelerate skill-building\, and highlight system-
 level tradeoffs in wireless design. Attendees will gain insight into how S
 DR experiments can serve as both a teaching tool and a professional resour
 ce for deepening expertise in next-generation communication systems.\n\nBi
 o:\n\nMurat Torlak is a Professor of Electrical Engineering at The Univers
 ity of Texas at Dallas. His research spans wireless communications\, softw
 are-defined radio systems\, and millimeter-wave sensing and imaging for ne
 xt-generation networks. He has authored more than 140 peer-reviewed public
 ations and led numerous projects on vehicular communications\, UAV network
 ing\, and advanced sensing supported by industry and federal agencies. Fro
 m 2020 to early 2025\, he served as an NSF Program Director overseeing fla
 gship wireless initiatives including PAWR and RINGS.\n\nPre-registered and
