Software Defined Radio
Team members: Luke Vercimak, Karl Weyeneth
A software defined radio is a radio transmitter/receiver that uses digital signal processing (DSP) for coding/decoding and modulation/demodulation. This allows much more power and flexibility when choosing and designing modulation and coding techniques. This project will implement a Digital Software radio receiver with a TI C6700 series of digital signal processor.
Due to hardware availability, both the transmitter and receiver will be implemented on the same DSP evaluation board. The system will be constructed and programmed entirely in Simulink using the embedded target for TI C6000 Simulink library. See deliverables for more information.

Using the SRadio Test IN block as the input to the QAM transmitter and receiver system shown in Figure 1, we verified that the data into the system is successfully received on the output. This data is shown in Figure 2.
Figure 1 - The Simulink QAM Transmitter/Reciever Model
Figure 2 - The top graph is the input data and the bottom graph is the received output data from Figure 1
The delay in the data shown in the bottom graph of Figure 2 is due to buffering and unbuffering data.
