SDR
Forum Will Kick Off General Meeting with Day-Long Workshop
on Rapid Prototyping & Development
Workshop Will Focus on How Software Defined Radio Technologies
Can Speed Development Cycle of Advanced Wireless Systems & Networks.
DENVER, August 23, 2007 – The Software Defined
Radio (SDR) Forum, (www.sdrforum.org), a nonprofit international
industry association for reconfigurable wireless technology, will
conduct an all-day workshop on rapid prototyping and development
on Monday, Sept. 17, in the Philadelphia suburb of Cherry Hill,
N.J. The workshop will be followed by the Forum’s general
meeting (Sept. 18-20), where SDR development leaders from around
the world will gather to discuss key issues related to the technology
and its deployment.
The workshop will examine the use of SDR technologies
in rapid prototyping. Major players in the SDR market – Anritsu,
BittWare, Lyrtech, The MathWorks, PrismTech, Spectrum Signal Processing,
Xilinx and ZeligSoft – will demonstrate how their products
can benefit the wireless community in accelerating the development
cycle for new wireless technologies, as well as in speeding the
time to market or deployment for advanced wireless systems and networks
used in the commercial, public safety and defense sectors.
The three-day general meeting will include sessions
on SDR for commercial, public safety and avionics applications;
cognitive radio; SCA testing & evaluation; smart antennas; research
& development; and design process. In addition, focused plenary
sessions will address the business aspects of the Forum, management
of work, and approval of documents.
The workshop and general meeting will both take
place at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Cherry Hill and are open to anyone
interested in SDR technology, including non-Forum members. Complete
details, including registration information, are available on the
web at www.sdrforum.org/pages/whatsNew/whatsNewDetails.asp?id=385&news_cat=Forum+Meetings.
