I have been interested in software radio for some time now but lack the technical knowledge to understand it fully. Can someone point me to links that can help me understand this ? I am sure it will be helpful to many people.
From what I have read one needs a Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) for sending and receiving radio signals but searching for this leads to things like daughter boards etc. which I did not understand.
Can someone explain it here ?
Thanks
- borism 17y agoWell, it's a long story, but I think in essence software radio is to communications is what integrated circuit is to computing.
- unwind 17y agoThe wikipedia page on the USRP seems to explain it pretty well: <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Software_Radio_Peripheral> http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universal_Software_Radio_Periph.... It also goes into the issue of daughterboards, although not in-depth. The reason for daughterboards is given as "[...] designed to be flexible, allowing developers to make their own daughterboards for specific needs with regard to connectors, different frequency bands, etc."
