The GNU Radio wiki is a former wiki powered by Trac about software from GNU to create radios from software, as opposed to conventional 'hardware' radio sets.

GNU Radio is a free software development toolkit that provides the signal processing runtime and processing blocks to implement software radios using readily-available, low-cost external RF hardware and commodity processors. It is widely used in hobbyist, academic, and commercial environments, to support wireless communications research, as well as to implement real-world radio systems.

GNU Radio applications are primarily written using the Python programming language, while the supplied, performance-critical signal processing path is implemented in C++ using processor floating point extensions where available. Thus, the developer is able to implement real-time, high-throughput radio systems, in a simple-to-use, rapid-application-development environment.

While not primarily a simulation tool, GNU Radio does support development of signal processing algorithms using pre-recorded or generated data, avoiding the need for actual RF hardware.

This Trac-powered wiki went offline sometime early-2009. It was replaced by a MediaWiki-powered site.
