  • Radio frequency (RF) subsampling can be used by radio receivers to directly down-convert and digitize RF signals. A goal of a cognitive radio/software defined ratio (CR/SDR) receiver design is to place the analog-to-digital converter (ADC) as near the antenna as possible. Based on this, a band-pass sampling (BPS) frontend for CR/SDR is proposed and verified. We present a receiver architecture based second-order BPS and signal processing techniques for a digital RF frontend. This paper is focused on the benefits of the second-order BPS architecture in spectrum sensing over a wide frequency band range and in multiband receiving without modification of the RF hardware. Methods to manipulate the spectra are described, and reconstruction filter designs are provided. On the basis of this concept, second-order BPS frontends for CR/SDR systems are designed and verified using a hardware platform.

  • In radio communication technology, SDR(Software Defined Radio) technology is emerging as a trendy technology for future. SDR is expected to change existing radio systems including central hardware. SDR is equipment that wireless parameters (frequency, modulation, additional service, power level, receive sensitivity, etc.) are controlled by software. In the world, equipments using the new technology are spreading. Not only equipments being imported but also local manufacturers are making this equipment, developing software and offering upgraded service. In the future, as SDR spreads and users choose the service, diverse equipments will be developed through competition and individual development. This diversity of equipment and services will introduce problems in compatibility and interoperation issues. So the government will have to make technical standard for SDR service and will have to make theses standards available to users and manufacturers alike. Therefore I am investigating the elements that can be used to establish these standards.

  • We propose an efficient digital IF down converter architecture for dual-mode WCDMA/cdma2000 based on the concept of software defined radio. Multi-rate digital filters and fractional frequency conversion techniques are adopted to implement the front end of a dual-mode receiver for WCDMA and cdma2000. A sub-sampled digital IF stage was proposed to support both WCDMA and cdma2000 while lowering the sampling frequency. Use of a CIC filter and ISOP filter combined with proper arrangement of multi-rate filters and common filter blocks resulted in optimized hardware implementation of the front end block in 292k logic gates.

  • In this study, Software Defined Radio (SDR) technology-based digital filterbank architecture applicable to a multiple-channel processing system such as a wireless mobile communication system using Code Division Multiple Access (CDMA) technology is proposed. The technique includes a micro-processor to redesign Finite Impulse Response (FIR) filter coefficients according to specific system information and to download the filter coefficients to one digital Band Pass Filter (BPF) to reconfigure another system. The feasibility of the algorithm is verified by computer simulation and by implementing a multiple-channel signal generator that is reconfigurable to other system profiles, including those of a Wideband Code Division Multiple Access (WCDMA) system and a CDMA system.

  • 본 논문에서는 SDR (Software Defined Radio)시스템을 위한 디지털 IF (Intermediate Frequency)수신기를 구현하였다[1][2]. 구현된 수신기의 하드웨어 구조는 AD변환부, PDC(Programmable Down Converter)부, DSP (Digital Signal Processing)부분으로 이루어졌다. AD변환부는 Analog Devices사의 AD6644를 이용하여 아날로그 신호를14bit의 디지털 신호로 변환된다. PDC부분은 Intersil사의 HSP 50214B를 이용하여 14bit 샘플 된 IF(Intermediate Frequency)입력을 혼합기와 NCO(Numerically Controlled Oscillator)에 의해 기저대역으로 다운 시키는 역할을 한다. PDC는 CIC (Cascaded Integrator Comb)필터, Halfband 필터 그리고 프로그램할 수 있는 FIR필터로 구성되어 있다. 그리고 PDC부분을 제어하고 PDC부분에서 처리할 수 없는 캐리어, 심볼 트래킹을 위해 Texas Instrument사의 16비트의 고정소수점 DSP인 TMS320C5416과 Altera사의 FPGA를 사용하였다. 그러므로 중간주파수 대역과 기저대역 간의 신호변환을 디지털 신호처리를 수행함으로써 일반적인 아날로그 처리방식보다 고도의 유연성과 고성능 동작이 가능하고 시간과 환경 변화에 우수한 동작 특성을 제공한다.

  • In this paper, we propose an angle-of-arrival (AoA)-based local positioning system using a time-modulated array (TMA). The proposed system can determine a two-dimensional position using only two TMAs without any synchronization between the two receivers. The hardware for the proposed system consists of two commercial monopole antennas, a self-designed switch, and a well-known software-defined radio receiver. Furthermore, the location can be simply estimated in real time without the need for complicated positioning algorithms such as the MUSIC and ESPRIT algorithms. In order to evaluate the performance of our system, we estimated the position of the wireless node in an office environment. The position was estimated with a mean error of less than 0.1 m. We therefore believe that our system is appropriate for various wireless local positioning applications.
