MATLAB with RTL SDR and Xilinx FPGA devices
Just like GNU Radio in Linux, MATLAB could be used for RF decoding and analysis with RTL SDR as source. Communication tool box in MATLAB has option to add RTL-SDR support to MATLAB. Similarly MATLAB also supports Xilinx FPGAs to be used as hardware platforms for users to develop algorithms in system block level , and hence hiding many low level design design hurdles during fpga development of the same. MATLAB can work together with Xilinx System Generator for this purpose. Many DSP functions are available as xilinx blocks in MATLAB-Simulink Library http://in.mathworks.com/hardware-support/rtl-sdr.html
