High cost and problems with hardware availability, however, prevented this technology from being widely disseminated. The advent of low-cost hardware beginning in the 2010s, however, has made GNU Radio—the leading open-source software toolkit for developing SDR systems—an increasingly viable and even critical tool for a new generation of radio frequency communication engineers.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCommunication Systems Engineering with GNU Radio\u003c\/em\u003e provides an accessible overview of this toolkit and its applications. Beginning with the fundamentals of using GNU Radio for digital signal processing, the volume then moves to the practicalities of decoding data and the advantages of accessing raw data normally unavailable in hardware-defined radio frequency receivers. The result is a potentially crucial tool for engineers looking to adopt this cost-effective and flexible standard for transmitting and processing radio frequency signals.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eReaders will also find:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eA careful balance of radio communications theory with GNU Radio practicalities\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003ePractical implementation examples employing well-developed open-source GNU Radio platforms\u003c\/li\u003e\n  \u003cli\u003eExtensive accompanying documentation and explanation\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cem\u003eCommunication Systems Engineering with GNU Radio\u003c\/em\u003e is ideal for graduate and undergraduate students in communications systems courses, as well as professionals working in SDR.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47423975260396,"sku":"9781394218882","price":247.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9781394218882.jpg?v=1774769543"}],"url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/collections\/jean-michel-friedt.oembed","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
