Like almost everything else in electronics, radios are becoming processors with software that communicate via a small amount of RF I/O circuitry. Surely, then, the rise of software-defined radio (SDR) ...

One of the best ways to learn about radios is to build your own, even in the age of cheap SDR dongles. [Aniss Oulhaci] demonstrates this with a simple HF SDR receiver built on a breadboard. An Arduino ...

There is a new breed of RF receivers known as software-defined radios, and they are revolutionizing the way in which people listen to shortwave (SW) radio, or indeed any form of radio broadcast. SDRs ...

When you think of a software defined radio (SDR) setup, maybe you imagine an IC or two, maybe feeding a computer. You probably don’t think of a vacuum tube. [Mirko Pavleski] built a one-tube shortwave ...

With the advent of software defined radio platforms in military aerospace and now more recently in some consumer radio and electronics segments, the usefulness of Field programmable logic (FPGAs) as ...

Texas Instruments is offering multicore digital signal processors (DSPs) based on its TMS320C66x processor. The main target is processing intensive applications such as software defined radio, radar, ...

The transition from analog to software-defined radio (SDR) represents a significant advancement in communication technology. Traditional analog systems rely heavily on fixed hardware for signal ...

To Whom It May Concern, I just read the guest commentary “Why Reviving Shortwave is a Non-Starter” on your web site. While some of the stated facts would seem true, I believe that some other facts ...

Electronic enthusiasts searching for a way to listen to radio broadcasts via an Ethernet connection may be interested in a new piece of hardware created by developer Kazunori Miura in the form of the ...
