Software-defined radio (SDR) moves encoding and decoding of radio signals into the software realm. It provides a flexibility that's useful in a range of applications, including signal interception, spectrum policy enforcement, interference detection, signal intelligence (SIGINT), and monitoring restricted areas such as military installations and airports.
