Claims23
A method comprising:
- receiving a first identification (ID) at a computer system from a server via a transmission medium;
- comparing the first ID with a second ID stored at a first analog front end coupled to the computer system;
- and
- certifying a first software-defined radio for operation if the first ID matches the second ID.
A computer system comprising a first software-defined radio including:
- a baseband unit;
- and
- a first analog front-end coupled to the baseband unit;
- the first software-defined radio being certified for operation by authenticating a first identification (ID) received at the baseband unit with a second ID stored at the first analog front end.
A network comprising:
- a first client computer;
- a transmission medium coupled to the first client computer;
- and
- a server computer, coupled to the transmission medium, that transmits first identification (ID) data to the first client computer upon receiving a request from the client computer to certify a first software-defined radio implemented at the first client computer.
A method comprising:
- receiving a request at a server computer to certify a first software-defined radio implemented at a first client computer;
- and
- transmitting first identification (ID) data corresponding to the first software-defined radio to the first client computer.
The method of claim 21 further comprising transmitting a radio protocol corresponding to first software-defined radio to the to the first client.
