Radio virtual machine

초록

Reconfigurable Radio assumes that the radio hardware platform is reconfigurable in such a way that the essential radio characteristics (carrier frequencies, spectrum bandwidth, modulation technique, coding technique, output power levels, and etc.) can be changed according to the flexibility of hardware platform that is defined by manufacturers. Corresponding radio hardware platforms are heterogeneous by nature and include computational elements with different level of programmability or reconfiguration. This paper addresses the problem of software portability and its generalization for reconfigurable platforms. Main contribution of this article is to present a novel architecture of the virtual domain-specific machine, namely, Radio Virtual Machine (RVM), which provides an efficient implementation of calculations related to radio signal processing in hardware platforms of different nature.
