View Details

USRP is a software defined radio that enables users to rapidly design, prototype, and deploy wireless systems. The USRP architecture consists of high-performance processors, large FPGAs, and a wide breadth of high-quality RF front ends. Combined with our robust software support, including UHD' (USRP Hardware Driver'), which ensures cross-platform code portability, you can maximize code reuse while focusing on new algorithm development. Choose from a variety of deployment options, from the USRP Networked, B Series, and X Series, which enable rapid prototyping in the lab, to the USRP Embedded Series, which allows you to meet the SWaP requirements for rugged deployment.

USRP provides a design solution to rapidly prototype wireless communications systems, including applications such as multiple input, multiple output (MIMO) and LTE/WiFi testbeds. USRP is also used to design and deploy shared spectrum communications, SIGINT, and radar systems which capture, process, and transmit wide signal bandwidths at a broad range of frequencies.

Support packages are available for connecting MATLAB® and Simulink® to USRP radio hardware.

USRP Support Package from Communications Toolbox

Highmesh Product Page

The support package includes the use of USRP as a standalone peripheral for live RF data I/O, including:

• Functions and System objects for connecting MATLAB to UHD-based USRP radios
• Blocks for connecting Simulink to UHD-based USRP radios

USRP E310 Support from Communications Toolbox

Using this support package with a USRP E310, you can work with live RF signals using dual (2x2) transmit and receive streams. You can also implement custom hardware designs for your SDR applications using HDL Coder' or Embedded Coder®. This enables you to test your design under real-world conditions and rapidly prototype designs for mobile and embedded applications. 

Support highlights include the ability to:

• Stream 2x2 channel RF signals into and out of MATLAB and Simulink
• Enhance, transmit, and receive selectivity using automatic selection of RF front-end filter banks
• Acquire and transmit high-bandwidth signals using burst mode
• Implement custom algorithms on the FPGA fabric and ARM® processor using HDL Coder or Embedded Coder (Note: Xilinx Vivado® Design Suite is required. Refer to "Required Third-Party Tools" in the documentation.)
