Sofware Communications Architecture compliant FM waveform implementation

Software Defined Radios are flexible communication devices that can operate as different radios depend on the installed Waveforms. Since the hardware and software components of this evolving concept have not been fully standardized, the implemented Waveforms have lots of question marks on portability, reconfigurability and reusability issues. Software Communications Architecture (SCA) is a standard that is intended to address these problems. In this paper, an SCA compliant FM waveform design and implementation will be presented to introduce the SCA, its applicability and its consequences.
