Beamforming in Software Defined Radio Webcast
Learn the benefits of implementing beamforming or adaptive beamforming in radio systems and some of the requirements to implement it.
Hosted January 18, 2011
Beamforming is a multi-antenna technique that provides a radio system (or other sensor system) with a strengthened response in a particular direction, while avoiding noise, interference and jamming from other directions. Similar techniques are also used in direction finding.
Beamforming has been used extensively in military systems and is gaining popularity in commercial applications like base stations to address the increasing problem of interference and jamming. Meanwhile, digital signal processing technology has made beamforming more feasible to implement in a wide variety of systems.
In this webinar, you will learn:
- Basic principles and benefits of beamforming and direction finding
- Beamforming implementation in reconfigurable digital systems
- System requirements for beamformers including phase coherent sampling, communication resources, and processing resources
- Case studies of implementation on SDR platforms and new ultra-wideband platforms
