Software Defined Radio
Software Defined Radio is portable and interoperable platform where components that have been traditionally implemented in analog hardware (e.g. mixers, filters, detectors etc) are instead implemented by means of software. Hence, a waveform definition is broad, covering at least layers 1 to 4 that covers entire functions of radio to include transmission frequencies, modulation schemes, voice encoding, error codes etc and not just air interface aspect of radio communication.
