GSoC (2026) - Hardware in the loop CI

Subject: Introduction and Interest in GSoC Hardware-in-the-Loop CI Project

Hello GNU Radio community,

My name is Naima Hassan, and I am a Telecommunications Engineer currently doing a PhD in space system engineering. My focus is on digital communications and signal processing. My research interests include wireless communication systems, software-defined radio (SDR), and practical DSP implementations for RF systems.

I recently started exploring the Google Summer of Code projects proposed by the GNU Radio community, and I am particularly interested in the Hardware-in-the-Loop CI project. The idea of introducing automated testing with real radio hardware is very exciting to me, especially since real-world wireless systems often behave quite differently from purely simulated environments.

From my background in DSP and telecommunications, I have experience with communication system designand signal analysis. I am very interested in contributing to the development of hardware-based testing scenarios, defining appropriate performance metrics (such as BER or detection accuracy), and integrating these experiments into a CI workflow.

I would love to learn more about the expectations for this project and how I could best prepare a strong proposal. If there are existing resources, repositories, or prior work related to hardware testing or the CorteXlab platform that I should study, I would greatly appreciate any pointers.

Thank you for maintaining such an impressive open-source project. I look forward to learning from the community and hopefully contributing during GSoC.

Best regards,
Naima Hassan
