Goals
Very low cost Interchangeable RF sections Wide bandwidth Extreme exibility MIMO-capability Create a community of user-developers Developed in parallel with GNU Radio Don't constrain what the user does
Architecture
Bus or network interface to host FPGA Dual high-speed ADCs and DACs for Quadrature signals Low speed ADCs and DACs for RSSI, gain ctrl, etc. Clock generation GPIOs, I2C, SPI
Interchangeable daughterboards convert analog baseband to RF
UHD
Works on Linux, Mac, Windows Using CMAKE for cross-platform build system
FPGA Design
CORDIC algorithm
Decimation and Interpolation

USRP1
USRP1
USRP2, N200-series
USRP N210
USRP E100-series
720 MHz ARM Cortex A8 with oating point SIMD extensions 520 MHz TI C64x xed-point DSP
Spartan 3A DSP (-1800 on E100, -3400 on E110) High-speed bus between FPGA and OMAP Audio In/Out, HDMI video 10/100 Ethernet USB Host, USB On The Go, USB console
USRP E100
Runs REAL Linux No need to choose between GPP, DSP, or FPGA processing Can develop directly on E100/E110 Develop on desktop with USRP1/2/N210, deploy (same code!) on Embedded
Uses UHD
Low power, no laptop Low latency with direct bus access
Network testbeds Wireless sensor nodes Public safety nodes Picocells Low-cost SIGINT boxes
