A MATLAB Library for Rapid Prototyping of Wireless Communications Algorithms with the Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) Radio Family

Abstract

Software-defined radios (SDRs) provide researchers with powerful and flexible wireless communications experimentation platforms. This report describes the development and usage of an U.S. Army Research Laboratory (ARL)-developed powerful software library that allows the user to interface with the Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) family of radio hardware using MATLAB. This library enables fast prototyping of algorithms on SDRs.
