Use the Software of Your Choice
No matter your development tool preferences, you can be confident in USRP hardware, which is compatible with the broadest range of software workflows on the market. You can choose LabVIEW for a unified, dataflow programming style or use the open-source driver with support for C, C++, MathWorks MATLAB®, GNU Radio, and more.
Build Advanced Wireless Systems
Modern wireless systems require a new generation of SDR for prototyping and deployment. Systems need wider bandwidth, higher frequencies, and more advanced digital signal processing architectures. Explore how the latest USRP options offer enhanced performance to build your next advanced wireless prototype.
Prototype with Wider Bandwidth
Prototyping algorithms for applications such as radar research requires the need for wider bandwidths and more channels. At up to 1.6 GHz of bandwidth and eight transmit and receive channels, the Ettus USRP X440 allows for higher accuracy for direction finding while maintaining phase coherency.
Perform Spectrum Monitoring
Spectral monitoring across multiple bands requires broad frequency coverage. With up to 7.2 GHz of frequency coverage, USRP SDRs allow users to monitor RF bands for locating and analyzing signals in communications and signals intelligence applications.
