Software Defined Radios (SDR) have revolutionized the field of signal processing. Thanks to high computational power of modern processors, typical components of a communication chain, which were used to be implemented in hardware, are now implemented in software. Therefore, multiplexers/demultiplexers, filters, amplifiers, modulation/demodulation are all computer managed rather than independent application-specific integrated circuits (ASICs). The evolution of processing capabilities allowed rapid prototyping in radio frequency (RF) communications. With the aid of developing environments, such as LabVIEW, satellite communication link models can be simulated and valuable information, that once was only possible in theory can now be extracted.
