Installation

The installation of xSDR is simple.

Firstly you have to add the Matlab Compiler Runtime to your System Path Variable. This can be done as following:

Windows Vista - 7

Click "Start"
Click "Control Panel"
Click "System and Security"
Click "System"
Click "Advanced System Settings" (may need administrative privileges)
Select "Advanced" tab
Click "Environment Variables"
Under "System Variables" area, scroll down until you see "Path"
Select "Path" (single click on it) and press "Edit"
If you have NOT Matlab installed on your system add "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Compiler Runtime\v711\runtime\win32".
If you have Matlab installed verify that your version's path is already added. You should see something like this: "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2009b\runtime\win32; C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2009b\bin;" depending on the version installed.

Windows XP

Right Click "My Computer"
Click "Properties"
In the System Properties window select "Advanced" tab
Click "Environment Variables"
Under "System Variables" area, scroll down until you see "Path"
Select "Path" (single click on it) and press "Edit"
If you have NOT Matlab installed on your system add "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\MATLAB Compiler Runtime\v711\runtime\win32".
If you have Matlab installed verify that your version's path is already added. You should see something like this: "C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2009b\runtime\win32; C:\Program Files\MATLAB\R2009b\bin;" depending on the version installed.

Secondly you have to install .Net Framework 3.5. You can download it from Microsoft's site sing the following link (the link is for the English language)

.Net Framework 3.5

Next thing is to check for the Microsoft Charts Library. If the library is not installed on your system please follow the link provided and install it on your system

Matlab / Matlab Compiler Runtime
xSDR requires either Matlab R2009b or the Matlab Compiler Runtime provided below to be installed on your system.

o If you have already Matlab installed you have to check the version. In order to execute the DRToolbox algorithms you must have a Runtime of the same version as the one used to compile the assembly. The assembly that is referenced on xSDR project is built using the Matlab R2009b. So if you have this version installed you are ready to run the tool.

o If you have another version of Matlab installed you have two options. First one is to build a new assembly file (drtoolbox.dll) then remove the assembly referenced on xSDR project, add the new assembly to the project and also add a new reference. The process is described in detailed on the user's guide at chapter 4.3.1.1
Note :The use of the term �new version� for the drtoolbox assembly file may not be the most sutiable, because the version may not be newer than the one provided. It just has to be built with o Matlab deployment tool of the same version as the one installed on your system. This Matlab version can be older than R2009b, or even the Drtoolbox itself can be older than the one provided.

o If you don't want to create a new assembly, or you don't have Matlab installed on your system then you just have to install the Matlab Compiler Runtime provided below.

MCR Installer (use 7zip to extract)

Last step is to download the tool. You have two options.

Download the source code (link available in the sidebar), compile and run it through Visual Studio (the version used during the development is VS 2008)
Download the xSDR tool, extract it somewhere in your system and then run xSDR.exe
