SOFTWARE DEFINED RADIO FOR LOADING WAVEFORM COMPONENTS AT RUNTIME IN A SOFTWARE COMMUNICATIONS ARCHITECTURE (SCA) FRAMEWORK

摘要

A software defined radio includes a radio circuit and an executable radio software system operable with the radio circuit and conforming to the software communications architecture (SCA) specification. An operating environment is defined and includes a plurality of waveform components that are loaded when the radio circuit is initialized or a waveform component is instantiated, and reloaded at runtime after the waveform component is instantiated for transmitting and receiving voice data.
