Software Defined Radio Hardware Design. Use these products for designing wireless communication systems physical layer prototyping and performing signals intelligence research. Software-defined radio is a concept according to which RF communication is achieved by using software or firmware to perform signal-processing tasks that are typically performed by hardware.

While the concept of SDR is not new the rapidly evolving capabilities of digital electronics render. Now that we have two examples of what an SDR is not here is my attempt at a definition of software-defined radio.

Software Defined Radio SDR is a popular application within the wireless infrastructure market. The hardware of a software-defined radio typically consists of a superheterodyne RF front end which converts RF signals from and to analog RF signals and analog to digital converters and digital to analog converters which are used to convert digitized intermediate frequency IF signals from and to analog form respectively. Advances in hardware mean that costs have fallen and performance has rise. VHDL is used to demodulate AM signal in FPGA Board.
