Generic SDR Platform Used for Multi-Carrier Aided Localization
نویسندگان
چکیده
⎯ This paper describes the Software Defined Radio (SDR) platform that is being developed and implemented in the scope of the EU 7PP Framework WHERE Project. The platform is based on one full-length PCI carrier board populated with one DSP module, one dual high-speed ADC/DAC module and one module corresponding to IF/RF front-end. It is equipped with two omnidirectional antennas working at 2.4GHz with 100MHz bandwidth. The platform is not restrained only to the PC tower box since its mobility is guaranteed with small portable PCI bus extension chassis supporting PCMCIA laptop connections. It is intended for exploring the localization possibilities of different multi-carrier interfaces.

A Sdr Ultra-wideband Impulse Communication System for Low and High Data Rates
The paper proposes a new way of considering software radio in the specific context of UWB. Due to the extremely wide-band nature of UWB signals, it is shown that a first stage of analog pre-processing is mandatory to make SDR applicable in this context, in other words to obtain flexible or multi-purpose UWB systems. But not any analog frontend is convenient. It must be generic enough in order t...
متن کاملModel Analysis on the Performance for an Inertial Aided FLL-Assisted-PLL Carrier- Tracking Loop in the Presence of Ionospheric Scintillation
Ionospheric scintillation has a significant impact on the availability of Global Positioning System (GPS) and Wide Area Augmentation System (WAAS), especially when the GPS/WAAS receiver is dynamically stressed. An example of such a scenario would be an aircraft using WAAS to make an approach and landing. This study investigated the tolerable wideband interference level given various conditions ...

Localization has been considered as an important precondition for the location-dependent applications such as mobile tracking and navigation.To obtain specific location information, we usually make use of Global Positioning System(GPS), which is the most common platform to acquire localization information in outdoor environments. When targets are in indoor environment, however, the GPS signal i...
