1 Introduction
The Vanteon vProteanTM and vProtean+TM are 2x2 software defined radios (SDR) that targets communications, signal intelligence, and other multi-band processing applications. They are based on the Analog Devices ADRV9004 highly integrated wideband RF transceiver and a Xilinx Zynq System-on-Chip (SoC). The vProtean SDR comes with a Xilinx Zynq7020 and the vProtean+ comes with a Xilinx Zynq-7045. The SDRs have similar, custom RF front ends that are highly flexible, allowing a SDR's frequency range to be configured from 30 to 6000 MHz.
Each vProtean SDR is pre-loaded with the vProtean SDR Evaluation Kit (VPROKIT-21) firmware and each vProtean+ SDR is pre-loaded with the vProtean+ SDR Evaluation Kit (VPLUSKIT-24-A) firmware. The VPROKIT-21-C firmware includes Vanteon proprietary, programmable logic cores and executable code to perform transmit and receive functions via a menubased UI over a USB enabled com port from a host computer (host not included). An encrypted Vivado Project of the VPROKIT-21's FPGA firmware, along with source code of the User Interface (UI) firmware is available under a free license agreement. The vProtean schematic and layout design files and Vanteon-proprietary DSP cores are available with a paid license. Contact Vanteon Sales for more information.

The vProtean SDR and vProtean+ SDR evaluation kits are sold for evaluation purposes. If you choose to use your vProtean/vProtean+ SDR evaluation kit to transmit using an antenna, it is the user's responsibility to make sure that they are in compliance with all local laws and regulations.
2 Proper Care and Handling
All Vanteon products are thoroughly tested before shipment. The vProtean/vProtean+ SDR is guaranteed to be functional at the time it is received by the customer. Improper use or handling of the vProtean/vProtean+ SDR can easily cause the device to become non-functional. Listed below are some examples of actions which can prevent damage to the unit:
· Never allow metal objects to touch the circuit board while powered. · Always properly terminate the transmit port with an antenna or 50 load. · Always handle the board with proper anti-static methods. · Never allow the board to directly or indirectly come into contact with any voltage spikes. · Never allow any water, or condensing moisture, to come into contact with the boards. · Never apply more than 0 dBm of power into any RF input. · Always use at least 30dB attenuation if operating in a loopback configuration.

The vProtean/vProtean+ SDR evaluation kit is supplied with heatsinks of the FPGA and transceiver IC. Under heavy processing and/or high output power levels additional airflow may be required to ensure the components remain in the specified operating temperature range to prevent damage.

The File Menu allows the user to select a user defined file from the SD card that specifies the transmit waveform. Use the UP and DOWN arrows on your keyboard to highlight the file you want to select and press Enter.
The format of the filename must have a ".iq" extension to show up in the file list.
The format of a transmit waveform is a .CSV file with one sample (2 IQ pairs) per line with I and Q values separated by a comma. Columns 1 and 2 contain the Channel 1 data and columns 3 and 4 contain the Channel 2 data . Values must be within the range of -32768 to 32767, inclusive. See below for an example file format.

The TX waveform file must contain between a minimum of 512 samples and a maximum of 2,097,152 samples, inclusive. The number of samples should be a multiple of 512. If the number of samples is not a multiple of 512, the TX waveform will be zero padded to the next multiple of 512. If the TX waveform file contains less than 4 columns the missing columns will be interpreted as zeros. If the TX waveform file contains more than 4 columns the extra columns will be ignored. The `#' character can be used at the start of a line to indicate a comment.
The evaluation kit should be powered down whenever mounting or removing the microSD card.

The vProtean/vProtean+ IP address is fixed as 192.168.99.200, the UDP packets are broadcast on port 1234 using broadcast address 255.225.225.225.
For UDP packets the four 16-bit values are packed into a 64-bit word as
Bits 63:48 - RX1-I Bits 47:32 - RX1-Q Bits 31:16 - RX2-I Bits 15:00 - RX2-Q

The 64-bit words are packed into the UDP packet data payload in little endian format.

The following Octave Script snippet shows how the UDP packets can be decoded in to RX1 and RX2
% read data from the UDP port % Each sample is 64 bits and contains four 16 bit values d = udp_read(u, num_samples*8,10000); if (length(d) == 0)
RX1 = []; RX2 = []; printf("failed to capture UDP data\n"); return; endif
% UDP packet read, parse data % first convert the bytes to 16 bit integers d0 = d(1:2:end); d1 = d(2:2:end); % data in UDP packet is little endian d2 = [dec2hex(d1), dec2hex(d0)]; d3 = typecast(uint16(hex2dec(d2)), 'int16'); d3 = double(d3);
% Extract the RX1 and RX2 data % the 64 bit sample is made up as % Bits 63:48 - RX1-I % Bits 47:32 - RX1-Q % Bits 31:16 - RX2-I % Bits 15:00 - RX2-Q % The 64 bit sample is stored in the UDO little endian so RX2 Q is the first value
RX2 = d3(2:4:end) + i*d3(1:4:end); RX1 = d3(4:4:end) + i*d3(3:4:end);
