-levelunderstanding (i.e., breadth) of a modern digital communications device while focusing onseveral key aspects (i.e., depth) in the design and implementation of these systems. However,learning how to use an actual software-defined radio platform for prototyping digitalcommunication systems is often a lengthy, tedious, and complicated process. As a result, thistechnology is usually not employed within the undergraduate curriculum due to the relativelyshort duration of a typical undergraduate course, e.g., 7-14 weeks. Conversely, if the laboratoryexperiments and SDR modules have been pre-packaged for the students enrolled in the course,this would allow for a controlled exposure to SDR experimentation while simultaneouslyenabling the hands-on learning
