Software-defined radio (SDR) enables baseband signal processing through software, allowing a single radio platform to support a wide variety of radio standards. This approach is crucial for in-vehicle intelligent multimedia touch screen systems, where flexibility and adaptability are key. Unlike traditional radio receivers, which require a separate receiver chip for each supported standard, SDR reduces hardware complexity by shifting much of the processing to software.
The SDR method can handle all signal processing that occurs after an analog-to-digital converter (ADC). To enhance efficiency and simplify design, some functions can be implemented in the front-end hardware. For instance, downsampling at the front end helps reduce the bandwidth between the front-end device and the SDR processor, making the system more manageable. However, any processing done in the front end must remain adaptable to maintain the overall flexibility of the SDR backend.
In an ideal SDR setup, all signal processing related to specific standards should be handled by the SDR itself. This allows the same radio front end to support multiple broadcast standards through software updates, making it highly versatile. The MAX2175, for example, demonstrates this concept with its functional block diagram shown in Figure 1.
Although baseband processing can be done in software, it still relies on a hardware platform. One possible design is to have two baseband processing cores on the same chip, each handling different signals like AM and FM. However, this approach isn't scalable when dealing with a larger number of standards. A more flexible architecture is needed to fully realize the potential of SDR.
Maxim has introduced the full-band radio (WBR), a standalone front-end tuner capable of supporting all major analog and digital radio standards. When paired with an SDR backend, this tuner enables a single radio platform to support global broadcasting standards seamlessly.
