OFDM RTL level IP core IP - based on a 802.11a WLAN physical layer

Implemented on a FPGA Eva-Board Demonstrator with MATLAB testbench.

Features:

  • OFDM based transmitter and receiver
  • Frame generator based on WLAN Standard IEEE 802.11g
  • Supports the different length of frames and silent times between them
  • Control of FFT points number (64/128/256) and cyclic prefix duration
  • Included scrambling, interleaving and coding
  • Different coding rates are supported, ½ and ¾
  • Different modulation schemes are available, QPSK and 16QAM

Advantages:

  • Higher aggregate throughput for same modulation type
  • Higher quality of service
  • Guaranteed same throughput for all nodes in the network
  • Low latency
