Model based design and SDR

This paper focuses on the major phases present in the development of an SDR system: design; simulation; code generation and verification. The paper illustrates, through an example, the use of model based design methodology and tools to integrate the major development phases into one continuous design cycle. Advanced system design concepts including, simulation, code generation, hardware in the loop testing is presented. Implementation of an FM3TR (future multi-band, multi-waveform, modular, tactical radio) modulator demodulator is discussed and presented.
