Symbol Synchronizer For Software Defined Radio (SDR) : Pravin Patil

SDR is Variable Configurable Radio transceiver solution. It migrates the radio system functionalities from analog to digital implimentation and controlled by a software. Symbol synchronization is one of the critical signal processing function performed by SDR Objective of this function is to recover the timing information that the receiver needs to identify the symbol begin and end. By recovering the symbol timing,it is possible to determing the sampling pt. At which symbol decesion are make.

Symbol Synchronizer for

Software Defined Radio


(SDR)
By
Pravin Patil
SDR -Defination

The SDR is Variable Configurable Radio transceiver solution.


It migrates the radio system functionalities from analog to
digital implimentation and controlled by a software

“Radio in Which some or all of the physical layer


functions are software”

- a radio that perform its processing through


software (error correction, modulation, control over
RF hardware…)
Benefits of SDR
Software Defined Radio (SDR) technology
-Brings the flexibility , Cost Efficiency
-Power to drive communication forward with
wide reaching benefits realized by service
providers and product developers
-Multifunctionality, Global Mobility
-Compactness and Power Efficiency
-Ease of Manufacture, Ease of Upgrades
SDR Application:

Configurable symbol synchronizer for


software-defined radio applications
ontinued….

• Symbol synchronization
• Symbol synchronization is one of the critical signal
processing function performed by SDR
• Objective of this function is to recover the timing
information that the receiver needs to identify the
symbol begin and end.
• By recovering of the symbol timing ,it is possible to
determing the sampling pt. at which symbol decesion
are make.
Wireless standards with different
symbol rates

GSM/GPRS 270.833Ksps
CDMA 3.84Mcps
WCDMA 3.84Msps
EVDO 1.2288Mcps
EDGE 270.833Ksps
HSDPA 3.84Msps
There is an increasing demand to provide a Multimode
and Multiband wireless platform
Proposed Configurable synchronizer
Synchronised substems

• Matched filter- A configurable averaging filter used


to generate the triangle w/f used for synchronization
• Symbol sampler- Capture early, current and current
samples of the incoming symbol.
• Offset update- Calculates the timing error sing
the three samples obtained by the symbol sampler
• Triggering system- Generates the symbol
sampling.
• Design & Implimentation in VHDL /FPGA/CPLD
Conclusions:

A synchronizer supporting multiple waveforms operating at


different data rates can be developed.

Saveral design parrameter can be modified to achive desirable


performance and modify area utilization.

The flexibility provided by this solution make it attractive to


software defined radio application.
