Fourth Workshop on Software Defined Radio (SDR) for Realtime Communication and Signal Processing
Hands on training in basic Signal Processing, Filter Design, Communication Experiments with GNU Software Defined Radio and Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP). Instruction for doing two dozen well defined Software Defined Radio (SDR) experiments for understanding basic communication theory will be given. Objectives Making even first year Engineering students to understand advanced communication engineering concepts with +2 mathematics Morphing a Computer Engineer into a Communication Engineer (for inter-disciplinary research) Real time implementation of Advanced communication concepts like OFDM, MIMO Modeling Wireless communication system parameters (Multipath Channel model, Channel estimation, Synchronization) Highlights It is first time in the history of Modern Communication Engineering every student can possess general purpose communication systems for experimentation It can do transmission and reception Supports all types of waveform It can receive data from variety of sources like satellites, Cell phone (GSM), HAM, FM, AM, Analog and Digital TV. Ultra Cheap SDR hardware will be provided for every participant for Communication and Signal processing implementations. Simplified view on signal processing for Communication. Simplified view of Communication Engineering concepts Simplified view of modern day communication engineering concepts (OFDM, CDMA), signal processing for Communication by Dr Soman K P Topics Mathematics of signal processing - a Coordinate geometry point of view Polynomial representation of signals - Z-transform, DTFT, Convolution Shift + amplitude scaling + adding = Digital filters Sampling rate conversion - a stepping stone to SDR Trigonometry + Concept of analytic signal - making low frequency signal ride over high frequency carrier waves Analog and Digital Modulation - AM and FM , FSK, GMSK GNU radio installations and experiments USRP + GNU Radio experiments in Real-time Communication experiments Design of Wireless channel parameters (for Multi path, Channel estimation and synchronization) OFDM based simple communication system |
