Software defined radio
Baseband technology for 3G handsets and basestations
Walter Tuttlebee - Collection Wiley series in software radio
Résumé
The impending advent of GSM in the early 1990s triggered massive investment that revolutionised the capability of DSP technology. A decade later, the vastly increased processing requirements and potential market of 3G has triggered a similar revolution, with a host of start-up companies claiming revolutionary technologies hoping to challenge and displace incumbent suppliers.
This book, with contributions from today's major players and leading start-ups, comprehensively describes both the new approaches and the responses of the incumbents, with detailed descriptions of the design philosophy, architecture, technology maturity and software support.
- Analysis of SDR baseband processing requirements of cellular handsets and basestations
- 3G handset baseband - ASIC, DSP, parallel processing, ACM and customised programmable architectures
- 3G basestation baseband - DSP (including co-processors), FPGA-based approaches, reconfigurable and parallel architectures
- Architecture optimisation to match 3G air interface and application algorithms
- Evolution of existing DSP, ASIC & FPGA solutions
- Assessment of the architectural approaches and the implications of the trends.
An essential resource for the 3G product designer, who needs to understand immediate design options within a wider context of future product roadmaps, the book will also benefit researchers and commercial managers who need to understand this rapid evolution of baseband signal processing and its industry impact.
L'auteur - Walter Tuttlebee
Walter Tuttlebee graduated from the University of Southampton with a BSc in Electronics in 1974. Following PhD studies and postdoctoral research he joined Roke Manor Research in 1979, where he contributed to and led feasibility studies, project definition studies and development teams on several successful radio communication systems.
During the 1980's, as a Chief Engineer within the Radio Communications Division, Walter was responsible for a wide range of R&D, with particular interests in the field of Personal Communications. He presented many invited papers at conferences on this theme, as well undertaking consultancy assignments for the European Commission and for telecommunications operators. Walter has overseen Roke Manor's ongoing work on UMTS in the European Commission's RACE and ACTS programmes. He is a Senior Member of the IEEE (SMIEEE) and a Fellow of the IEE (FIEE).
In 1992 Walter graduated with an MBA degree (Masters in Business Administration) from the Cranfield School of Management, Bedford, UK in 1992. Reflecting this, his role has evolved to one of technology and business development for the growing Radio Communications Business Unit at Roke Manor, in which role he has in recent years pioneered new initiatives in Digital Broadcasting and in Satellite Communications. His ongoing technical interests are reflected in consultancy work which he still undertakes for clients, alongside his business development activities.
Walter is widely known in the wireless telecommunications industry. His first book "Cordless Telecommunications in Europe" was published in 1990 and his new one "Cordless Telecommunications Worldwide" in December 1996. He has chaired several industry conferences, including the annual DECT world congresses organised by IBC, the latest being DECT '98 in Barcelona, January 1998. He also is a frequent invited speaker at industry conferences on themes associated with digital multimedia telecommunications and broadcasting. He will be speaking on the theme of "European Developments in Software Radio" at the Software Radio Workshop organised by the European Commission and the MMITS Forum in Rhodes, June 1998.
