Radio Virtual Machine for ETSI Standard Reconfigurable Radio System

Abstract

This paper introduces Radio Virtual Machine (RVM) for a Reconfigurable Radio System (RRS) of which the configuration is determined by the downloaded radio application code. First, this paper introduces the architecture of reconfigurable Mobile Device (MD) as a standard of European Telecommunications Standards Institute (ETSI). Then the RVM, an engine for reconfiguring the MD, is introduced. In addition, a procedure of compiling the radio application code is also shown in this paper. Main contribution of this paper is to present the RVM functionality of resolving the problem of portability between the software and hardware of a reconfigurable MD.
