  1. HiQSDRDirect Digital Conversion SDR Transceiver based on N2ADR-SDR

  2. Pro/Contra Tayloe-SDR PRO: Cheapand simple • CONTRA: Witchswitching (Tayloe) mixers, (Softtrock, Pappradio usw) onlythedemodulationis „digital“, not the RF processing! Due totheanalogueprocessingofthe I/Q-Signals, phantomsignalsand multiple receptionscanoccurwithinreceptionwindow The qualityofthe Soundcard is essential forthequalityofthewhole SDR-System No large distancesbetween Transceiver and PC, I/Q Signals aretransferredas analog Signals ! Low dynamicrange (<100dB), andweakIP3 is a resultofthe simple Mixing principle, Master oscillatorsignalishardtorejectfromAntenna, Deaf hole aroundzero Hertz IF due toinabilityof Soundcards todigitizelowfrequency / DC signals

  3. Pro/Contra DirectConversion PRO: Complete digital processingfromantennetodemodulatedsignaloutput. Full digital I/Q processingresults in noamplitude / phaseerrors, nocorrectionsneeded Full digital processingevenforthe RF partresults in clean andexactsignalsandallowsthemaximumofpossiblelinearityoftheused ADC/DAC andtheirdynamicrange. Digital mixingwithcordicsproducesnomirrorsignals! Digital filteringwithcordincs / FIR Filters allows large usablebandwith (upto 1 - 2 MHz!) Hi resolutionof ADC/DAC allowshighusabledynamicrangeandresults in a good IP3 Digital processing in FPGA allowsnewfunctions / filters / functionsloaded „on-the-fly“ Transfer of digital data via Network allows large operatingrange & speed, only limited on therangeofthenetworkandallows easy remote operatedtransceivers. CONTRA: Higher cost due to FPGA und expensive ADC und DAC - converter

  4. DDC = Direct Digital Conversion • Direct Digital Conversion= „Antenna to Bits“ principle • Full digital processing „directfromantenna“ withoutany analog conversionresults in best Signals andhighestFlexibility
