Software Defined Radio - Evolution of Flexible Radio Architectures

Software Defined Radio (SDR) is one of the fastest growing radio architectures. This talk will introduce SDR and some of the available commercial SDR radios (SDR14, DS100, WiFi, GPS Receivers) and hobbyist radios (SDR-1000 and the experimental Softrock V5). The evolution of the superhetrodyne receiver to a zero-IF design will be discussed with an emphasis of what can be demodulated through I/Q signals into A/D converters. The amazing myriad of software, which leverages the sound card will be reviewed, suggestions on improving sound card limitations will be discussed and a live demo presented.
