Software Defined Radio, SDR c
The software defined radio, SDR, sometimes called a software radio has been the aim of many radio developments for a number of years. The roots of software defined radios can be traced back to the days when software was first used within radios and radio technology.

The basic concept of the SDR software radio is that the radio can be totally configured or defined by the software so that a common platform can be used across a number of areas and the software used to change the configuration of the radio for the function required at a given time. There is also the possibility that it can then be re-configured as upgrades to standards arrive, or if it is required to meet another role, or if the scope of its operation is changed.
