Software Defined Radio ( SDR) og Cognitive Radio (CR)


SDR in terrestrial systems - visions, applications and challenges

With the introduction of Software Defined Radio (SDR) and the new technology and service neutral spectrum regulation, there is a true competition on Mobile Data between the incumbent mobile operators and the new WiMAX service providers.

The new spectrum regulation grants user rights and not exclusivity, as long as the equipment fulfils the spectrum requirement defined by, i.e. the so called Block Edge Masks. With SDR the hand-sets can easily be re-configured to different wireless broadband technologies. Therefore, SDR and the new spectrum regulation provide a new perspective of a new competitive environment. The end-user may not be limited to a single operator, but may easily shift between different operators providing mobile or wireless broadband services dependent on their price-models.

The question is, however, whether SDR will be integrated in all hand-sets or the SDR chips
becomes adequate for only the high-end terminals.

The intention expressed by European Regulators is also to introduce some SDR systems on a
licence exempt basis. The promising outloook is to provide high throughputs and at the same time increase utilisation of the frequency spectrum.

At this seminar, you will get a clear insight into SDR, the possibilities and challenges in solving issues of coexistence with established technologies. We will provide you with concrete examples on SDR application areas like cellular hand-sets, mobile basestations and Microwave links with their potential and possible risks for interference with mobile services. Furthermore, the regulatory issues will be covered when it is comes to the opportunities and challenges in the new spectrum regulation.
