Software Communications Architecture (SCA) Compliant Software Defined Radio Design for IEEE 802.16 Wirelessman-OFDMTM Transceiver
Abstract
Demands for seamless mobile communications are driving the research and development of software defined radio (SDR), which enables a single terminal to transmit and receive in distinct wireless systems through a simple change in software to reconfigure the terminal's functions. Its application areas include military use, home networks, intelligent transport systems and cellular communications. Several SDR software architectures have been developed during the last few years. One implementation of the Software Communications Architecture is the Open Source SCA Implementation::Embedded (OSSIE) which is developed by the Mobile and Portable Radio Research Group (MPRG) at Virginia Tech. The goal of this thesis was to design and implement transmitter and receiver components using OSSIE. The components were designed for use in the IEEE 802.16 WirelessMAN-OFDMTM transceiver and for contribution to the library of components being developed. Thus, the components will be flexible and useful for other transceivers by specifying the appropriate parameters.
