Abstract :
On the way to mobile software defined radio terminals (SDR terminals), a change of the design philosophy for appropriate microelectronic hardware is necessary. The desired reconfigurability must be provided under the constraints of a low power consumption, a low bill of materials, and a small size. This contribution proposes a novel design paradigm for hardware development, which will help to pave the way for software defined radio terminals.
