Not really. Open Projects like GNU need open IP like in: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/OpenCores There is Ethernet controller code (up to GBit/s), USB2 code, OpenRISC, PIC, Microcontrollers etc. The DSP section has special signal processing blocks, like this project of a hardware FFT processor: http://opencores.org/project,pipelined_fft_128 What about a Gnuradio emitting FFT samples instead of time domain samples, for applications like spectrum analyzers or cognitive radio monitoring modes? Gnuradio would be a good software/hardware platform for further development of OpenCores. I like the idea. The SDR section is still empty http://opencores.org/project,software_defined_radio Why not contributing SDR code to OpenCores? Btw, USRP2 is also using OpenCores verilog code in the FPGA directory. _______________________________________________ Discuss-gnuradio mailing list Discuss-gnuradio@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/discuss-gnuradio
