Generalities

SSRP aims to be an alternative product to USRP. This project goal is to develop a modular hardware solution, with a radio that only convert the RF signals to baseband samples, and transfert these samples through an USB link to the host PC.

Up to now, the SSRP project is only able to process signal without RF part. Hence, the processed signal are real signals, with a maximal bandwidth close to 15MHz (since real signals are transmitted and the DAC depth is 8 bits.).

SSRP block scheme

It seems this project is dead, no update has been published since October 2005.

Main characteristics

Radio interface to computer The SSRP is connected to a computer with a USB 2.0 interface.
Frequencies No RF, SSRP only works in 0-15MHz
MIMO No
ADC/DAC 14 bits (at 30Ms/s) - DAC: 8 bits
Baseband The baseband processing consists in sampling the signal. No data processing is done by the SSRP.
Software GNU Radio
