Communication technologies have been in constant evolution during the past decades. Amongst these digital communication is very relevant. The advent of the digital processor enabled us to perform the complex tasks of communication such as transmission and receiving using a programmable system. This led to the development of a new radio paradigm called Software Defined Radio (SDR). I believe that software is increasing replacing hardware due to it's scalability and cost effectiveness; this idea propelled me to research in this domain. \cite{0001} Software Defined Radio is a type of system which does the process of transmitting and modulation of radio waves using non-traditional hardware like Raspberry pi with the help of software.

In this case I used one of the cheapest model: Raspberry Pi. The transmitter would transmit on 100MHz and with an output power of 1.5W. Modulation is done by adjusting the frequency using the fractional divider between 100.025Mhz and 99.975Mhz, which makes the audio signal. \cite{0002} Future Work: The earlier system devised could be improved by implementing the following features: - Change Frequency: The Raspberry Pi GPIO pin 4 always transmits the radio waves at the value of 100MHz. I plan to make it possible for the user to set his own frequency value from the traditional FM radio spectrum. - Support more file formats: Currently the designed code only supports the '.ogg' format this is because of it's ease of use in terms of audio manipulation and its ability of holding meta data. Since most users do not use this format for their audio files and in order to remove the conversion over head, my future work would involve providing support for more conventional file formats such as '.mp3 and .wav'. Further, I plan to make use of this SDR based transmitter for Cognitive Radio Communications, that is, developing a dynamic transceiver which can intelligently detect unused channels and broadcast on the best channel thus avoiding interference. Mobile devices are dealing with an increasingly complicated

Using the COM-5102, the SDR will transmit the radio signal, this pulg in will add associated MAC addresses and UDP headers onto the project automatically [15]. The VHDL code has values that can be changed slightly to accommodate UDP or TCP transmission. For the project, UDP headers will be used.
ANS: The entire process is performed by multiplying a radio frequency carrier and a pseudo-noise (PN) digital signal. The PN code is modulated onto an information signal using several modulation techniques such as quadrature phase-shift keying (QPSK), binary phase-shift keying (BPSK), etc. A doubly-balanced mixer then multiplies the PN modulated
So back to the basic, what is FM? FM is stand for frequency modulation, which used changes in frequency to carry the sound or other information that is required to be placed onto the carrier. The advantages that made FM widely used for many broadcasting and mobile applications are:
In fact, mobile radios has become such a key tool in all business communications that one of the FCC’s major challenges is ensuring efficient and effective use of the radio spectrum by business, while guaranteeing the reliability and interoperability of all public safety radio uses. In finding a way to make this all work, the FCC helps make America a safer and better place to
On the receiving end, the demodulator works by detecting one or both of the frequencies, often with a band-pass filter, regenerating the input signal. You can also use a signal processor to convert the carrier from time domain to frequency domain with a fourier transform, and then pick off the signal that way.) The FSK method of modulating/demodulation is typically limited to low frequency signal rates, such as 300 bits per second
An FM system: it works similarly, but the sound is conveyed through radio waves to a personal receiver (Reber, 2013).
frequencies which helps avoid some of the single frequency problems. It can usually transmit at only around 250 kps.
AM (Amplitude Modulation) is the original way of broadcasting radio. Lee de Forest and Reginald Fessenden are given credit for the development of the technique which was carried out successfully for the first time in the mid-1870s, its frequency ranges from 535 to 1705 KHz and the typical bandwidth of an AM channel is 10 kHz. The name ‘AM’ itself gives a clear indication to the type of modulation technique used; Amplitude Modulation. Amplitude Modulation is a modulation technique which works is by modifying the carrier wave’s strength by increasing or decreasing its peaks in line with the variations of the input sound; the strength of the wave is known as amplitude, through all of this the frequency remains constant – the same. This type of modulation technique is more susceptible to noise and or interference due to the fact noise effects amplitude directly. The change in signal strength allows the conveyance of information through the radio wave that is sent out via a transmitter and is received by a radio device otherwise known as the receiver. When the signal is received, demodulation takes place; this can be dealt with in two ways depending on the device. Either a Diode AM detector will carry out the demodulation (which is
Bluetooth is a wireless short-range communication system introduced to connect portable electronic devices. Bluetooth has developed a world wide and open short-range radio specification aiming at communication between the Internet and Net devices, it defines the communication protocols between computers and various other devices. In order to make the various devices like computers other or related equipments more user friendly, there will always be a strong need for better method for all the electronic devices to communicate using low-power and short-ranged wireless links. . The technology uses Frequency-Hopping Spread-Spectrum (FHSS) Communication in 2.4-GHz industrial,scientific, and medical band, in which devices are allowed to communicate.
Repeaters for digital TV broadcasting can use either analogue or digital techniques. The purpose of using repeater is to boost signals into areas of weak coverage in any radio communication system. However wave interference means the repeater usually requires a frequency shift for analogue modulated signal. For digitally modulated signal it may be possible to use same frequency.
Orthogonal frequency division multiplexing has also been adopted for a number of broadcast standards from DAB Digital Radio to the Digital Video Broadcast standards, DVB. It has also been adopted for other broadcast systems as well including Digital Radio Mondiale used for the long medium and short wave bands.
A software defined radio is a radio that can be used for wireless communication that can be programmed by a computer. It is typically a radio communication technology in which wireless communication protocols implemented without the actual usage of wires. The great advantage of using software defined radios are that they can be re-configured. Therefore, it can be used to update the protocol with ease. For
Wireless communication is nowadays widely utilized in many high-performance devices and remote sensing systems, comprising radar sensors
