You are talking about "software defined radio"? like:
http://focus.ti.com/lit/ml/sprt406/sprt406.pdf
I see that this kits eat a LOT of $$$ ;)
From http://www.comsec.com/wiki?UniversalSoftwareRadioPeripheral
The price for the motherboard is $550, and basic daughterboards cost $75 each.
These are low volume development boards. I would expect if you wanted
100000 with the daughterboard merged onto the motherboard then the
price would be different.
Isn't there a way to use a multi-frequency tranceiver and the FPGA
to controll/emulate the protocoll specific part (Bluetooth, Wi-fi,
DECT,...)?
That is exactly what the software radio is about.
