FPGA implementation of high-frequency software radio receiver

State-of-the-art analog-to-digital converters allow the design of high-frequency software radio receivers that use baseband signal processing. However, such receivers are rarely considered in literature. In this paper, we describe the design of a high-performance receiver operating at high frequencies, whose digital part is entirely implemented in an FPGA device. The design of digital subsystem is given, together with the design of a low-cost analog front end.
