Applications of software-defined radio (SDR) technology in hospital environments

Abstract: A software-defined radio (SDR) is a radio communication system where the major part of its functionality is implemented by means of software in a personal computer or embedded system. Such a design paradigm has the major advantage of producing devices that can receive and transmit widely different radio protocols based solely on the software used. This flexibility opens several application opportunities in hospital environments, where a large number of wired and wireless electronic devices must coexist in conf… Show more

“…One of the contributions that led to the thought of resorting to the design of a mobile communications system and the use of SDRs is because it allows interoperability with other network devices, the wireless communication systems, and military industry, among others and, because of its abilities to change protocols in real-time [21].…”

“…Further, software could be downloaded over the air, allowing existing devices to implement new standards as well as fix bugs. Finally, in environments such as hospitals a single device would be able to communicate with equipment using different frequency ranges and communication standards [34]. • Virtual Wireless and wired networks: With programmable hardware, it would be possible to dynamically spawn and destroy new wireless networks, based on the demands of the users.…”
