Analog-to-digital converter

In electronics, an analog-to-digital converter (ADC, A/D, or A-to-D) is a system that converts an analog signal, such as a sound picked up by a microphone or light entering a digital camera, into a digital signal.

See OpenHPSDR and Analog-to-digital converter

Digital radio

Digital radio is the use of digital technology to transmit or receive across the radio spectrum.

See OpenHPSDR and Digital radio

Digital-to-analog converter

In electronics, a digital-to-analog converter (DAC, D/A, D2A, or D-to-A) is a system that converts a digital signal into an analog signal.

See OpenHPSDR and Digital-to-analog converter

Direct-conversion receiver

A direct-conversion receiver (DCR), also known as homodyne, synchrodyne, or zero-IF receiver, is a radio receiver design that demodulates the incoming radio signal using synchronous detection driven by a local oscillator whose frequency is identical to, or very close to the carrier frequency of the intended signal.

GNU General Public License

The GNU General Public License (GNU GPL or simply GPL) is a series of widely used free software licenses, or copyleft, that guarantee end users the four freedoms to run, study, share, and modify the software.

Software-defined radio

Software-defined radio (SDR) is a radio communication system where components that conventionally have been implemented in analog hardware (e.g. mixers, filters, amplifiers, modulators/demodulators, detectors, etc.) are instead implemented by means of software on a computer or embedded system.

See OpenHPSDR and Software-defined radio

Tucson Amateur Packet Radio

TAPR is an international amateur radio organization.

See OpenHPSDR and Tucson Amateur Packet Radio

Universal Software Radio Peripheral

Universal Software Radio Peripheral (USRP) is a range of software-defined radios designed and sold by Ettus Research and its parent company, National Instruments. OpenHPSDR and Universal Software Radio Peripheral are software-defined radio.
