Fine-tuning commercial and military radio design
Barry S. Perlman, Joy Laskar, Kyutae Lim · IEEE Microwave Magazine · 2008
Software-defined radio (SDR) and cognitive radio (CR) concepts have been introduced to change the paradigm of wireless communications by making it possible to improve data throughput and connectivity by enabling autonomous reconfigurability spectral and temporal agility, and adaptive behavior. This new class of intelligent radio would be able to adapt to a wide variety of wireless operating conditions and multiple protocol standards, which will allow collaboration between otherwise incompatible systems.
