Furthermore, the key techniques and its functions for soft - ware radio are proposed. Finally, technique difficulties current statu

Since the invention of the superheterodyne re - ceiver in the early this century, radio architecture has remained remarkably unchanged. While it is true that development has not stood still ?

Software radio, first presented by Joe Mitola1, an American, is mainly applied to military services which have, over the years, developed many kinds of radios, each having a special purpo

Most of these waveforms will be able to be implemented through the inclusion of software thus producing a truly multimode and multimedia business system.

Therefor, it is of great value to military services but of much great to mobile communication systems which are confronted with a lot of new standards and environ - me

Flexibility means that channel access mode can be transferred randomly, modulation mode can be changed at will and, various signals can be re - ceived, e. g. software radio can presents a opportunity for business travelers to easi

The cost for software radio is much more than that for traditional receiver, but the cost of each channel can be decreased on the large scale. this increases great abstractio

Essentially, all functions -filtering, amplification, downconversion -up to the demodulation stage are implemented using analogue technology. At this point the baseband signal is di

Obviously, this architecture consists of quite a number of components. It is always attractive for the circuit

One approach to this forms the basis of the software radio concept, namely the moving of analogue -to -dig- ital converter( ADC) as far up the antenna itself. ( as shown Fig. 2) ? ? BPF ? LNA ? ?
