Abstract :
This paper describes the SpectrumWare testbed and two experimental systems we are developing: an ATM-based wideband receiver and the receive side of a GSM base station. These projects leverage recent advances in processor and analog-to-digital conversion technology that have enabled a software-oriented approach to wireless communication and distributed sample processing
