Software defined radios implement components like mixers, filters, amplifiers and modulators/demodulators through software instead of dedicated hardware. This allows radios to be reconfigured through software for different communication technologies and practices using general purpose hardware, reducing hardware complexity. SDR is a radio communication technology based on software defined wireless protocols rather than fixed hardware implementations.

OVERVIEW What is SDR? Why do we need to know about it? Introduction Software-defined radio (SDR) is a radio communication technology that is based on software defined wireless communication protocols instead of hardwired implementations.
In other words, Software-defined radio (SDR) is a radio
communication system where components that have been typically implemented in hardware (e.g. mixers, filters, amplifiers, modulators/demodulators, detectors, etc.) are instead implemented by means of software on a personal computer or embedded system. Understanding SDR A communication equipment/technique/architecture which involves minimal of hardware complexities and at the same time is reconfigurable for wide range of communication related technologies and practices by using general purpose hardware.
