“O frati,” dissi “che per cento milia perigli siete giun ti a l’occidente, a questa tanto picciola vigilia d’i nostri sensi ch’ del rimanente non vogliate negar l’esperienza, di retro al sol, del mondo sanza gente. Considerate la vostra semenza: fatti non foste a viver come bruti, ma per seguir virtute e canoscenza.” A. Dante, Inferno, Canto XXVI

Preface

Software Radio (SR) is one of the most important emerging technologies for the future of wireless communication services. By moving radio functionality into software, it promises to give flexible radio systems that are multi-service, multistandard, multi-band, reconfigurable and reprogrammable by software. Today’s radios are matched to a particular class of signals that are well defined by their carrier frequencies, modulation formats and bandwidths. A radio transmitter today can only up convert signals with well-defined bandwidths over defined center frequencies, while, on the other side of the communication chain, a radio receiver can only down convert well-defined signal bandwidths, transmitted over specified carrier frequencies. The challenge is to remove such constraints and design systems that can be used as universal platforms that can adapt themselves to specific situations. We would like to have a single transmitter that is able to up convert signals independently of their bandwidth, modulation format and carrier frequency. For every transmission,
