Implementation of a software defined radio on FPGAs using system generator

摘要

The aim of this thesis is to implement a Software Defined Radio based wireless communication system using a Xilinx Spartan 3E Field Programmable Gate Array. Software Defined Radio refers to the class of reprogrammable radios in which the same piece of hardware can perform different functions at different times. Xilinx’s System Generator for Digital Signal Processor tool is used to simulate and implement AM modulation on the Spartan 3E Starter Board.
