What can be considered the "Hello World" of Software defined radios using MATLAB or Simulink?
Could anyone suggest something simple to kick start with SDR on MATLAB or Simulink with a simulated waveform and without using any RF hardware? Such as isolating and decoding an FM or an AM?
I found a mathwork webminar that focused more on the product and less on SDR concepts. I have spent over 6 hours googling for this.
There is cheap hardware that can be used for SDR. The LF/HF band received here needs a transverter (up mixer) to shift the frequency up to the required range.
This is cool. Never heard of this before. I may try to build the RF front end. Where can I find the interface spec sheet? Once I complete the design I would gladly share it with all of you I suppose I could google it, but too lazy right now
The simulation is more for my understanding. I have mostly given up and am considering buying a device. I would have been glad if someone could have made available a recorded RF waveform that I could import into MATLAB or Simulink and start working.
So, my idea for using this Realtek needs two USB ports, one for the dongle and one for the front end to program the synthesizer. Any of you software winkidinks wanna contribute?
