“…SDR can rely on programmable frameworks running on general purpose processors, such as GNU Radio and Labview, to define functionalities which comprise the radio access technology, while the RF front ends are devices such as Zynq SDR, BladeRF, and USRP [6,8,15]. Some programmable frameworks allow users to configure FPGAs or other embedded resources close to the radio front end.…”

Today's wired networks have become highly flexible, thanks to the fact that an increasing number of functionalities are realized by software rather than dedicated hardware. This trend is still in its early stages for wireless networks, but it has the potential to improve the network's flexibility and resource utilization regarding both the abundant computational resources and the scarce radio spectrum resources. In this work we provide an overview of the enabling technologies for network reconfiguration, such as Network Function Virtualization, Software Defined Networking, and Software Defined Radio. We review frequently used terminology such as softwarization, virtualization, and orchestration, and how these concepts apply to wireless networks. We introduce the concept of Virtual Radio Function, and illustrate how softwarized/virtualized radio functions can be placed and initialized at runtime, allowing radio access technologies and spectrum allocation schemes to be formed dynamically. Finally we focus on embedded Software-Defined Radio as an end device, and illustrate how to realize the placement, initialization and configuration of virtual radio functions on such kind of devices.

“…To keep low the power consumption a suitable solution is using FPSoC (Field Programmable Systemon-Chip) devices, which integrate in the same chip software-programmable cores and configurable FPGA (Field Programmable Gate Array) co-processors. Indeed, literature [16] has demonstrated that for computing intensive tasks FPGAs offer a better trade-off between computational capability and power consumption than software-programmable DSP or General Purpose Processors (GPP) or Graphic Processing Units (GPU). The design of ASIC (Application Specific Integrated Circuit) will entail too high design time and cost and is not justified by a market, which is not yet a large volume one.…”

The paper exploits the video camera available on-board vehicles for public transport, such as trains, coaches, ferryboats, and so on, to implement advanced services for the passengers. The idea is implementing not only surveillance systems, but also passenger services such as: people counting, smoke and/or fire alarm, automatic climate control, e-ticketing. For each wagon, an embedded acquisition and processing unit is used, which is composed by a video multiplexer, and by an image/video signal processor that implements in real-time algorithms for advanced services such as: smoke detection, to give an early alarm in case of a fire, or people detection for people counting, or fatigue detection for the driver. The alarm is then transmitted to the train information system, to be displayed for passengers or the crew staff.

“…El rápido prototipado ha hecho emerger muchos sistemas como: USRP RIO 294xR/295xR, USRP 2920 de National Instruments, o sistemas usando la plataforma de Zynq SoC que usa circuitos Integrados de radio frecuencia (RFCI) de Analog Devices, entre otros dispositivos. Estos sistemas han sido usados desde validación de Masive MIMO (Malkowsky et al, 2017), implementación de MIMO testbed (Hwang et al, 2016), sistema de adquisición de datos remoto (Shi et al, 2015), entre otras aplicaciones académicas y de tecnologías 4G (Tripathi et al, 2015a;Harikrishnan et al, 2014;Tripathi et al, 2015b). El principal propósito de este artículo es ilustrar los detalles de cómo configurar el Zynq SoC ZC702 (zyn, 2015), AD9361 RFIC (dev, 2013) y Matlab, para implementar un sistema de agrupación de antenas definido por software como instrumento de medición MIMO.…”

En este trabajo se presenta un método de configuración un Sistema de Agrupación de Antenas Definidas por Software, para medir parámetros Si1 y fase, provenientes de cuatro entradas de radio frecuencia. Se utilizó un computador para configurar el sistema, generar la forma de onda, y procesar señales recibidas a través del circuito integrado AD9361 de Analog Devices y el controlador Xilinx Zynq- 7000 SoC. Para determinar la precisión en potencia y fase de la señal en agrupaciones de antenas, se ha caracterizado un divisor de potencia de 1:8 y un acoplador hibrido de 180 grados, ambos dispositivos para la banda de 0.5 GHz a 6 GHz. Finalmente, se exponen algunas aplicaciones posibles del sistema en Síntesis de Agrupación de Antenas, algoritmos de beamforming, así como en la estimación de la dirección de la señal recibida.
